[ckan-discuss] relationships between datasets

[Mark Wainwright]

Hi Jan,

Great news that you managed to piece the information together. The
wiki is a community resource and it would be wonderful if you could
take edit the page on relationships to reflect what you found.

If you're feeling really generous with your time you could even make a
pull request to the docs. See
