==============================================
Cablemap - A Cablegate to Topic Maps converter
==============================================

What is Cablemap?
-----------------
Cablemap converts the WikiLeaks Cablegate dataset into Topic Maps. Further,
it provides utilities to extract information from the Cablegate dataset
independently of Topic Maps.

Getting started
---------------
Even if you don't know Topic Maps or don't care about Topic Maps, Cablemap
can help to extract useful information from the diplomatic cables. Several
modules like the ``reader.py`` module are independent of Topic Maps and
provide a convenient interface to the cable information.

To get started with Cablemap, look into the ``cablemap.core`` package which
provides utilities to convert cable HTML sources into cable objects.

Disclaimer
----------
Cablemap is not a WikiLeaks mirror and has no ties to WikiLeaks.
It provides just a parser to read published cables which are already widely
available on the web.
