I think you should consider having some better quality control and standards around this, as I feel it is somewhat misleading. For example (and this is one of several), consider CAS which is named in the diagram. I don't consider the contents of that set to include any data. Here is an example: http://cu.bio2rdf.org/cas:921-60-8 Subject http://bio2rdf.org/cas:921-60-8 Predicate Object http://bio2rdf.org/bio2rdf_resource:url http://bio2rdf.org/html/cas:921-60-8 (Non-RDF URI) http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#sameAs http://cas.bio2rdf.org/cas:921-60-8 (External link) This is content free. In addition, the documentation of that set says it is not open: http://ckan.net/package/bio2rdf-cas Although this URI might be used to link somehow, in my opinion it is misleading to call this collection a linked open *data* set. Further, including it will do damage to LOD reputation if anyone actually looks past that diagram to see what is really there.
