tool ? How hard would it then be to create a XML import for the GEMET
data ??
Well, it can basically recreate everything that fits into an SQL dump
and has a unique key. Table "Xyz" would become [[Data:Xyz]], and each
data row becomes a first revision of a primary key.
What I can't reproduce, at least at the moment, is SQL queries. But I
doubt anyone would volunteer to write an SQL frontend for this;-) But
then, for just storage/retival, it won't be necessary anyway.
I just lookes at the XML data of GEMET. There's a file for every
language, so do you want
1) make tables [[Data:GEMET_DE]], [[Data:GEMET_EN]] etc., or
2) make a single table [[Data:GEMET]] with different fields for each
language?
Both is possible, alas, I have not yet written the retrival part...

The easiest thing is to create the tables as defined in the SQL
definitions you will find in META. This will create the stuff as is at
GEMET.
This will allow for changes to be made to the data (like adding "hypoxia".
