Hi Dieter:
There are several ontology repositories available on-line, but to my knowledge
they all suffer from two serious limitations:
1. They do not rate ontologies by quality/relevance/popularity, so you do not
get any hint whether foaf:Organization or foo:Organization will be the best way
to expose your data.
Schemacache[1] used to order results by the number of documents
Sindice found it it, but this wasn't terribly effective; what we want
is something more like "number of individual publishers using term X"
rather than "number of individual documents using term X".
The new Sindice search frontend provides a first solution towards this
problematic. Sindice allows you to group search results per domain. See
[1,2] as examples. It is not yet perfect, nor optimal, but this is a
first try, and this might be useful for your scenario.
We are currently focussing our effort in Sindice towards what we call
dataset search. The dataset/domain grouping is a first step towards this
big picture. We will add additional features in the future, like a more
detailled summary of the datasets, e.g., its inter-relations with other
datasets.
