I am curious whether and when a truly open source (as defined by the folks at http://www.opensource.org) version of OpenCyc might become available. The binary versions that have been released to date only run on (Intel-based) Windows and Linux, so I can't use them on Mac OS X (I have, BTW, been able to run the Linux version on FreeBSD :-). If an open source version were available, some volunteer effort might show up to get it working on other operating systems... -r -- email: rd...@cf...; phone: +1 650-873-7841 http://www.cfcl.com/rdm - my home page, resume, etc. http://www.cfcl.com/Meta - The FreeBSD Browser, Meta Project, etc. http://www.ptf.com/dossier - Prime Time Freeware's DOSSIER series http://www.ptf.com/tdc - Prime Time Freeware's Darwin Collection |

I thought this was sorted out by now.... Hmmm... Only the Datbaase was released up to now IIRC. With the sources, we could compile this thing under GJC and create a native binary. Bye the way, the RDF output of the gcc is coming along well, this will be very interesting for opencyc I hope. There is a daml import I have heard, so RDF import should not be a problem. mike ===== James Michael DuPont http://introspector.sourceforge.net/ __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Is a Windows-based version really available? I thought Opencyc was currently only available for Linux operating systems.

What would be even better would be someone constructing an open source forward and backward chaining inference engine that happens to understand the OpenCyc KB On Tue, Nov 26, 2002 at 11:38:10PM -0800, Rich Morin wrote: > I am curious whether and when a truly open source (as defined by the > folks at http://www.opensource.org) version of OpenCyc might become > available. |
