Registries and surveys

• http://metadataregistry.org/ - a (curently nascent?) registry of ontologies and metadata vocabularies. See also a paper at http://arxiv.org/ftp/cs/papers/0605/0605111.pdf. Does this somnewhat overlap schemaweb?

• http://www.schemaweb.info/ - " SchemaWeb is a directory of RDF schemas expressed in the RDFS, OWL and DAML+OIL schema languages. SchemaWeb is a place for developers and designers working with RDF. It provides a comprehensive directory of RDF schemas to be browsed and searched by human agents and also an extensive set of web services to be used by software agents that wish to obtain real-time schema information whilst processing RDF data." As far as I'm aware, this was the first open public regsitry of RDF schemas and ontologies.
