As far as I know we are not close to any limitation on CKAN http://thedatahub.org/
are we?

I think it is a matter of finding volunteers (or employing people) to  
1) ensure data is available with appropriate open license to post to CKAN
2) actually port the data to CKAN
3) document the porting process 
4) deal providing necessary periodic updates

I have several datasets where I have at least got to 1). I would appreciate
volunteers to help work on 2) and 3) and 4).
