[okfn-help] CKAN questions...

Hi John, Hi Rufus,

Congratulations on hitting the new milestones with CKAN/datapkg! I just 
thought I'd quickly scribble down a few questions I've been wondering 
about CKAN...

  * If there any way I can generate a list of tags with the number of 
packages that use that tag? This could be used to generated tag coulds 
weighted by package...

  * Is there any way that (now or in planned developments) I can do 
faceted browsing by tags? E.g. to click on 'uk' then click on 
'statistics' to find all packages with both tags 'uk' and 'statistics'? 
I guess after clicking 'uk' one would have to display all other tags 
associated with the relevant packages?

Anyhow - I've started dumping CKAN related notes at:

Best wishes,
