It may be an option to leave out qintervention of to leave out the problematic dataset -- which eager users may want to obtain separately by other (legal) means and have the tools working when the data is in place. > PS The Q stands for "from QResearch", where the Q stands for "enquiry, or > query/curiosity driven", IIRC. I was wondering because its meaning might inform on choosing a fitting package name. Thanks for your great work !
