call-a-bike data? #42

Thanks @kruse-alex for the heads up. These data are different to most, and seem restricted to Hamburg only - right Alex? But it reads as if they intend to maintain ongoing releases on an annual basis, making them acceptable for incorporation in bikedata. Alex: I've put this issue here in my package, becuase all of the infrastructure for reading and storing is there, so it'll be the easiest way for us both to get the data into R. Please jump in and help! Note also that the repo should soon move to ropensci (pending review).

Closing this as there seems to be no commitment on the part of Deutsche Bahn to ongoing provision of open data, or expansion beyond the single city of Hamburg, even though the system itself is national in scale.
