[datacatalogs] [ckan-discuss] Non-gov catalogs in datacatalogs.org

Tue Dec 6 10:02:01 UTC 2011

Awesome,

I presume Kat is the best person to change the front page?

If so, @Kat - could you possibly take a look at this when you get a
chance?: http://trac.okfn.org/ticket/1011

Just trying to add a group for academic institutions but think I may have
found a bug:

Url must be purely lowercase alphanumeric (ascii) characters and these
symbols: -_

I have entered: academic_institutions

Am I doing sth wrong?
