I prefer sticking with "knowledge" as it keeps the genetic link to both CKAN and OKF, but "dataset" is the most precisely descriptive.

## CKAN Tagline

Related to this, thought on a better 'tagline' describing the purpose
of ckan.net is also needed (and any general thoughts on what people
think the core purpose is that this tagline should capture).
Suggestions please!

It needs to capture the fact that these are a) datasets b) on all subjects c) that you can download and use freely d) rather than any half-assed non-commercial APIs, etc. .

e.g.:

"The world's knowledge at your fingers"

"Datasets to download and use freely"
