Perhaps somebody has kept track of the options on a website?we have made an RDF version of GADM [1] available at [2], and are working on interlinking that dataset with other Linked Data sources (such as DBpedia and GeoNames). It's work in progress so we welcome feedback. There's also a list with some geospatial datasets [3]. Best regards, Andreas.
