I think the tagging would be an excellent way of training a Bayes network.
Whether it could tag as well as a human -- well you prove it, and we'll be
begging to use your network to tag new threads.
(Personally, as a DMOZ editor, I believe that "humans to it better". But I'm
happy to be proved wrong)
Feel free to use the ML archives and their tags as a training data set.
You can download the ML archive (one message at a time!) using the Library
Data Services Interface:
http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/documentation.r?script=lds-local.r
The LDS request 'get-rml-message will return the current tags for the thread
(field is 'topic-list -- not currently mentioned in the documentation)
