Have already started to think about this, when the doap.net site get 
some more project entries I will generate this, either through the 
rdf:Description, or via the Class structure as proposed below. I'm also 
thinking about setting up REST style access to the projects where  you 
can query the system based on certain properties - who is in different 
projects etc.

I have two tools at the doap.net site now: 
http://www.doap.net/pub/tools/ - you can now generate the (base) stub 
of a doap file from freshmeat and sourceforge projects. Any other that 
should be included here?
