Datahub.io is a well-populated [data package index](http://datahub.io/dataset), and the data package management platform that powers it (CKAN) is open source. So an FAQ entry as to how this project does or does not relate to Datahub seems in order. Also, OKFN has a data package manager command line tool: https://github.com/okfn/dpm/ Reported from http://datadex.io/about/faq
Thanks @hlapp! Will add an entry mentioning datahub. FWIW: - I hadn't seen CKAN before making datadex. - Datadex's use case is different. CKAN seems more data portal for large organizations. Datadex is geared more towards individual researchers and computers. - `dpm` was developed at the same time. - There are others, like `ldpm` - For now, we're converging on the data package format here: https://github.com/dataprotocols/dataprotocols/issues/110 - After, we'll see about converging in API / CLI tools. - Also, the `data` cli tool may end up merging into `dat`.
