Is there one yet?  At the very least, you should make sure it's accessible from the new Wolfram Open Cloud, and from Mathematica.  (If you need it, I could connect you to someone who could help architect this, or I could even have a quick think about it myself.)\"\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/LMFDB/lmfdb/issues/comments/219299178","html_url":"https://github.com/LMFDB/lmfdb/issues/1360#issuecomment-219299178","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/LMFDB/lmfdb/issues/1360","id":219299178,"user":{"login":"AndrewVSutherland","id":11425002,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/11425002?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/AndrewVSutherland","html_url":"https://github.com/AndrewVSutherland","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/AndrewVSutherland/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/AndrewVSutherland/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/AndrewVSutherland/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/AndrewVSutherland/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/AndrewVSutherland/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/AndrewVSutherland/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/AndrewVSutherland/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/AndrewVSutherland/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/AndrewVSutherland/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-05-15T17:33:04Z","updated_at":"2016-05-15T17:33:04Z","body":"I realize its just for the db.  The downside is that this means things are represented at a low level that may not immediately translate to what you see on the screen, but the upside is that\r\n\r\n(1) it is (or should be) documented, so that that someone who really cares can do what they want with the data.\r\n(2) we are moving toward a model where we store more information in the db and do less massging/computation on the fly (both for efficiency and to enable searches)\r\n(3) going through the db bypasses the need to change a lot of code (which I agree should be done and I like your proposal, I'm just looking for a quick win here -- not to address mathematica, but to address queries from researchers who want to do bulk loading into sage and magma, which should really be raised as a separate issue).\r\n"}}
