    Dear colleague, this is to inform you about the availability of
    OntoSelect, a multilingual ontology library and ontology selection
    service that has been under development at DFKI since 2004:

    http://olp.dfki.de/OntoSelect/

    OntoSelect collects, analyzes and organizes ontologies that have been
    published on the (Semantic) Web. You can browse ontologies according to
    size (number of classes, properties), representation format (DAML, RDFS,
    OWL), connectedness (score over the number of included and referring
    ontologies) and human languages used for class/property labels:

    http://olp.dfki.de/OntoSelect/index.php?mode=browse&do=onto

    OntoSelect is somewhat similar to the Semantic Web search engine Swoogle
    but includes a more extended functionality for ontology selection that
    provides automatic support in selecting ontologies relative to a URL
    (i.e. a complete web document) instead of one or more keywords:

    http://olp.dfki.de/OntoSelect/index.php?mode=select

    You can try out this functionality with any URL. We obtained some good
    results for instance with Wikipedia pages.

    Please let us know about your feedback. Have fun!
