I'm getting some push-back from gov data publishers on using DBpedia sadly (it's third party, it's not real, it's not stable, not like all our wonderful government department Web sites that sometimes stay on line for whole months!). The PROMOM effort that Dave has highlighted looks like the kind of thing they'd like more - government agency to government agency - as long as there's no ".uk" anywhere in the URIs I guess. How about "use a stable URI scheme for file formats if available, falling back to the MIME type if not available" ? Phil.
