It looks like all of the repos in this topic are under the namespace of one commercial company, planet-a-ventures - so I think it falls under the "self-promotion" clause.

Hi @ahpook , thank you for looking into this.

There are loads of repositories which have code for the same tool that are not in our org. Planet A has no affiliation with DLT, so it is definitely not self promotion. The reason I added the tag is because at current time there is no tag binding them all together, so you can't navigate between different repositories that are all spanning the same topic.

There are some under dlt: https://github.com/search?q=dlt&type=repositories but the problem there is that DLT as an acronym is too short to meaningfully connect the right repositories. Lot's of different organizations use the dlt acronym, not at last Delta Live Tables which is at least equally as big as the one from dltHub. Introducing a dlt topic therefore didn't really make sense as it wouldn't meaningfully cover the right space of the topic. Hence why I went with data-load-tool.

There are some (correct) matches under: https://github.com/search?q=dlthub&type=repositories but dltHub is the name of the organization maintaining/producing DLT, hence it's not ideal either.

  1. It makes sense to have a common topic that can be used to label/tag all existing repositories that have something to do with dltHub's DLT
  2. It does not make sense to lump them all together with other topics that also happen to use the acronym DLT

Can you please give some guidance to navigate this issue @ahpook, so I can introduce a topic that people can use in the future to tag correctly?
