Hi,

I've been using datacatalogs.org a bit, and there are a few problems
that it would be great if we could fix.

1. The list of catalogues in a group (e.g.
http://datacatalogs.org/group/ckan) seems to be in a random order.

2. The record for a catalogue (e.g.
http://datacatalogs.org/group/ckan) doesn't show all the metadata. It
doesn't even show which groups the catalogue is a member of! The only
way to find out half the metadata is to go into the 'edit' screen, and
even then, you can't see the groups unless you're logged in as a
suitably authorised user.

3. There should be a field for contact info - for a public contact
point for a catalogue.

(2) is by far the most pressing of these.

Mark
