Hi Jonathan, all,

Yes agreeing on some tags would be great!

I currently use in delicious the following tags:

ourdata (eu specific stuff) http://delicious.com/tag/ourdata
opendata  (also non-eu stuff) http://delicious.com/tag/opendata
mashups (for examples of reuse) http://delicious.com/tag/mashup
initiative (for gov actions, and group actions)
http://delicious.com/tag/initiative
datasource (for data sources) http://delicious.com/tag/datasource

I use diigo.com in parallel to delicious with the same tag structure.

best,

Ton
