Communicate more clearly that this project does not provide importers, but that it helps make existing importers smarter #56

It's not really "smart", is it? Is there maybe a better name we could give it?

johannesjh commented 6 years ago

I liked "smart" as part of the name because that's how machine learning is often marketed. Artificial intelligence uses the same metaphor. But we can certainly talk about choosing a better name. Any ideas or suggestions?

yagebu commented 6 years ago

I can't really think of any name right now that's as concise and sounds as good.

Maybe keeping the name is not so bad, but the description should be updated - this package doesn't provide any importers, rather it provides helpers to turn any existing importer into a "smart importer"

johannesjh commented 6 years ago

ok, I'll rephrase the ticket accordingly.
