Could this be combined with http://rubyforge.org/projects/classifier/ ?

It looks like they both have a similar syntax:

classifier.train :symbol, "content"

Would the method_missing syntax be easy to add to Bishop? Would
untrain be easy to add to projects/classifier? From what I've looked
at them so far, sounds like the answer to both would be yes. If they
had the same API, they could go in the same module so that swapping
filter types would be as simple as changing the Classifier::XXX.new
line.

Cheers,
