[data-protocols] Data Protocols Client Package in R

Wed Apr 3 03:41:08 BST 2013

Great!

I just added a "COPYING" file to the repo which specifies the MIT license for the project.

As a caveat, we're relying heavily on the mixed-array format proposed in the fork (https://github.com/trestletech/dataprotocols) which will hopefully ultimately be integrated into the main spec. I'll be working to ensure that the R package is compatible with the "traditional" named-hash format used in the examples currently, as well.

It certainly is!

Jeff (et al), this is awesome! Thanks - that makes at least two implementations of JSON Table Schema (I did one in Python, also on GitHub).

What's the copyright licence on your code?
