Hoi, So how do I get to use this tool on Labs and what makes a job computing-intensive. After all, I need to learn a tool first before I know such distinctions.. Thanks, GerardM

Hoi, It reads like a lot of work went in there.. Congratulations.
I understand that it uses the live data and that it can be using dumps of other installations :) Now how do I use it from Labs ?
Labs has Java installed. You can just copy any Java application to your home directory there and run it. We are running a WDTK-based application on labs to generate the RDF exports, for example.
P.S. For computing-intensive jobs, you should of course not run the application directly from your home but submit it as a job. I guess Labs users know about this. Most bot-like applications won't need too much resources (since they are network I/O bound), but one should be considerate about these things when using Labs.
