Comment (by mantepse):
I agree that the situation could be better from the sage point of view.
However, there are a few things to keep in mind:
'''The current FindStat project really does want to be open to non-
SageMath users, and it tries very hard. In fact, I believe that most of
the effort went into the web interface.''' I think this is very
important, so I make it boldface :-)
Currently, I (Martin) am mainly interested in using FindStat from within
SageMath. I asked Christian whether this would be possible, and so he
provided me with the necessary information to create this interface.
I agree that a clean API is desirable, but it is beyond my knowledge, and
beyond the human resources of the FindStat project. (As far as I know,
there are currently five people who contributed to the FindStat project
-- all listed here: http://www.findstat.org/Contributors. My first and so
far only contribution (apart from editing statistics) is the interface,
but actually, this is more a contribution to SageMath, isn't it?)
Therefore, if you are able to provide such a clean interface, please go
for it!
