Re: Please recommend interesting 4-5 star Linked Data Sets

Thanks very much Martin.  Sure would be nice to have you join us during this week's GLD WG call (nudge).  Any chance you can make it and highlight this work?  I  just heard an NREL's Jon Weers discuss LOD success stories on a big data talk last week & it was great.

Speak to you soon.

Cheers,

Bernadette Hyland
