Well, it's more a proof of concept than a commercial application. I used it in 
my company before it closed to update a magazine website. We had only the 
(text) PDF files.

Basically, I used some artificial learning technology + expert system to 
extract the semantic of the text and XMLize it. Then I put it on the 
Webserver and the update was done b/c I had some XSL behind to work for me 
:=)

It's written in Jython + some Java parts and works well.

I'm right now in the last month of my employment. I think I'll work on it 
during my unemployment period but I'm also wondering if ppl would be 
interested in something like that?
