For instance, it would be good to be able to ask "What quotas were started in 2010?". I note that the Species+ API anticipates this, describing a workflow where data is cached in the local client and updated by calling the taxon_concepts endpoint with the updated_at parameter to get a list of species whose information has changed since the last download. A few RO packages have this design pattern, like taxizedb, restez, and my own cites package. I won't demand this for the current review but think you should consider it for 1.0 or 2.0. This would be a very powerful feature, it should be doable to implement it within a few months.
