Links to downstream packages (and their RSS feeds) would also be helpful.

* Debian has RDF (and also more structured link types that would be useful
for project metadata)
  * changelog / "release notes"
  * build lods
  * https://wiki.debian.org/RDF
  * https://packages.qa.debian.org/p/python3-defaults.html
  * https://packages.qa.debian.org/p/python3-defaults.ttl

What URI should pypi:readme or warehouse:readme expand to?

@prefix pypi: <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/> ;
@prefix warehouse: <https://warehouse.python.org/project/> ;
@prefix github: <https://github.com/> ;
* pypi:json["info"]["name"]                ( + ".json" )
* warehouse:json["info"]["name"]
* github:json["info"]["name"]

@prefix doap: <http://usefulinc.com/ns/doap#> ;
* http://lov.okfn.org/dataset/lov/vocabs/doap

@prefix schema: <http://schema.org/> ;

* schema:SoftwareApplication -> https://schema.org/SoftwareApplication
* schema:Code -> https://schema.org/Code
* schema:Project -> TODO (new framework for extension vocabularies)

Should/could there be a pypa: namespace?

@prefix pypa: <https://pypa.github.io/ns/pypa/#> ;

* [ ] { PEP Metadata -> JSON-LD, pypa.ttl RDF Ontology }
