Thanks for all your good work; dbnomics becomes ever more comprehensive.
Working on the dbnomics client for gretl I came across a few anomalies in the category trees for certain providers, which make life a bit more difficult than it needs to be for authors of client programs.
- Almost all datasets have both a code and a name, but the OECD dataset with code “REGION_ECONOM” has a JSON null value in place of a name.
- In the tree for the Bank for International Settlements, many “name” fields have a string of the expected sort, but with a newline character and a chunk of whitespace appended.
In both of these cases some additional work is needed to make the “name” usable in third-party code.
