API/wrapper, umbrella project (e.g. BioRDF, data.gov.uk). That is because
we'd like to require different info from each.

So far we've been improvising ok with tags, though. So if that would
complicate UX, or nobody else sees the need, we're fine.

Cheers,
Pablo

<p>Tim,<br>
As part od the LOD cloud diagram cataloguing effort we tagged some packages=
 as &#39;wrappers&#39;. They would also fit in this category.</p>

<p>From our perspective it would be useful to have a package &#39;type&#39;=
: dataset, API/wrapper, umbrella project (e.g. BioRDF, <a href=3D"http://da=
ta.gov.uk">data.gov.uk</a>). That is because we&#39;d like to require diffe=
rent info from each.</p>
