A link to the “register new package” page would be handy somewhere on the front page. As a frequent editor, I often go to ​http://ckan.net in order to create a new package. I don't want to hunt around for the link to the “new package” form.

The link could go into the bar next to “About / Statistics”. Or into the “More information” sidebar. Neither of these truly make sense, but it's a frequently accessed link and that's reason enough to put it somewhere onto the frontpage.

An extra field on datasets called "metadata_language". The language that the meta-data is in. Drop-down list needs to be translatable. Default value is "English".

Add image attribute for Dataset and Group which would be shown in prominent place.

For dataset this could be a relevant image and for Group this would be more of a logo.

I think this has very high value from a UX point of view.

Issues

• Do we need to support uploading and storing the image (or do users store elsewhere)
  • Could use something like transloadit service
  • Use our own storage facility with a reserved directory
• Do we need to do resizing etc?
  • Maybe. Perhaps can prefer this in reasonably small size and then just size down in css for thumbnails etc.
