There is a specific sensor catalogue that handles SensorML called Sensor
Instance Registry, which we developed (see different clients here [1]
and here [2]). Do you mean something like that?
Arguably, it is all XMLSchema based now and not extremely attractive for
hackers/mashups, but it is ongoing research and testing Linked Data or
JSON output has been discussed for a while.
If you mean CKAN, that looks great, a very accessible to users and bulk
downloads of data. Do you know how well they support real-time datasets
such as the AirQualityEgg?

Yes, good thinking. We should definitely explore modelling the data as
linked data.
Should we start a wiki page and collect the information from this
thread? Just to make all the ideas more readily understandable for others.
So my suggestion here would be to have a list of machine readable tags
in cosm that can than be mapped to SensorML, JSON encodings and linked
data formats (e.g. [3]). The sooner this list is available, the earlier
we can prepare mappings to different outputs so we have some idea of
metadata as soon as the eggs actually hit the shelves.
