Seeing the tweet: @DefraGovUK: *@DefraGovUK: wild bird population National Stats out today http://bit.ly/g7No0I [via @jennybee] @jennybee]* earlier today, I wondered whether it would make sense: 1) to have an area of [getTheData.org][1] where publishers of data could make publication announcements about new data sets they had released? A nice to have would then be: 2) for the system to make a recommendation to the person submitting the announcement about related questions, that they might then answer? Noting the rather nice 'possibly related data sets on CKAN' widget on getTheData, I also wonder whether: 3) there might an opportunity for a reciprocal widget on CKAN that alerts package owners/maintainers to questions on getTheData that the package might be related to, alerting the owner to the possibility of promoting their package via an answer on getTheData? tony [1]: http://getthedata.org
