Provides easier interaction with Socrata open data portals http://dev.socrata.com. Users can provide a 'Socrata' data set resource URL, or a 'Socrata' Open Data API (SoDA) web query, or a 'Socrata' "human-friendly" URL, returns an R data frame. Converts dates to 'POSIX' format. Manages throttling by 'Socrata'.
Maybe we should ignore the README.md in the build files, since CRAN tests the URLs but we can't do the same tests on our side. I wonder if the README.md is important to have on CRAN?
In issue #220 I missed the second link to travis: https://github.com/Chicago/RSocrata/blob/42c3d6d80654e6642d6ba24f5923fe8dd1675934/README.md?plain=1#L32
