Facilitate future imports by third parties

[adriansteffan]

A shower thought: Once the current migration mess is done, we might want to think about even further measures to facilitate imports (beyond the idless big table). Martin jokingly bounced around the idea of promoting “put your data into peekbank format and our package will analyze/sanity check it for you”. If we make the imports easy enough and merge peekds (import) and peekbankr (pulling data) into a single package we distribute, that sales pitch could turn into “put your data into peekbank format and we will analyze it for you and compare it to the typical looking-while-listening data for that age range/item type”. That could motivate some folks convert their data into peekbank format on their own or at least reach out to us with their data.

This would turn into more of a product development/marketing problem then, but could be promising to help future data inflow for peekbank.

Lets’s chat about this up once we are done with the code review.

Exciting idea, Adrian! I agree that "auto analysis" is very cool. Maybe this is something we can discuss more at the hackathon!
