Ross,

Thanks for the pointer.

I'm not familiar with thedatahub.org beyond using it.

Could you point me to the code and install instructions for how to set up my own ckan instance?

I'm trying to fire up the code that produces RDF from a CKAN instance.

Thanks,
Tim

I'm generating an initial dump of the RDF from the datahub and will be providing it to openlink in the morning, so that we can start the setup and then organise how this will be done in future.  I'll try harder to keep everyone up to date with the progress on this.
