Jackan supports installations of CKAN >= 2.2a. Although officially the web api version used is always the v3, unfortunately CKAN instances behave quite differently from each other according to their software version. So we periodically test Jackan against a list of existing catalogs all over the world. If you're experiencing problems with Jackan, let us know, if the error occurs in several catalogs we might devote some time to fix it.

• OpenDataRise: power tool to cleanse and semantify open data, based on OpenRefine
• Open Memory: Program to query datasets harvested from Ckan and stored into a Hadoop Distributed File System.
• Ckanalyze: Tool to perform statistics on CKAN datasets written in Java.
