I think I have read that article a long time ago. I just looked at it
again. Very lengthy but true.
In the middle there is a section when ontologies work well and ... it
all applies to Hackage.
When Does Ontological Classification Work Well?
Domain to be Organized
Small corpus 3k libraries is nothing compared to the whole
web (referring to the yahoo example), or every book on earth
Formal categories already exist, just need some improvement
Stable entities Haskell is a mathematical language, and if
there is one thing that will never change then it is math
Restricted entities access only after personal email
Clear edges ?
Participants
Expert catalogers Maybe the best
educated programmers in the world
Authoritative source of judgment Maybe
Coordinated users It could be better
Expert users mostly
