Once one has nailed down a relationship between ontologies and 
taxonomies, there comes the interesting question of what to do with them 
(:-)  (02)
As you are in a Knowledge Management area, you may be interested in some 
discussions following on from a recent W3C workshop on semantics and 
rules systems for reasoning over ontologies.  (03)
The link  (04)
 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rule-workshop-discuss/2005Jun/att-0006/00-part  (05)
would jump you into the middle of one such discussion.  (06)
Sections 3.2 - 3.6 of the paper 
http://www.w3.org/2004/12/rules-ws/paper/19 describe some hopefully 
useful examples.  (07)
I hope this may be of interest. Thanks in advance for comments.  (08)
