Added standard toolkit item for jq

[jq](http://stedolan.github.io/jq/) is a powerful and useful utility for working with data in JSON format, whether from an external API or for data in JSON files. I think it would make...

Standard Toolkit Item for JSON?

2

I'd suggest adding a tool like [jq](http://stedolan.github.io/jq/) to the [standard toolkit](https://github.com/datamade/data-making-guidelines/blob/master/styleguide.md#4-standard-toolkit) for working with JSON. Its my go to utility for working with JSON and getting data from APIs that...

Create unpermitted reporting app

Minimum Date Range for providing BLDS data

Should the standard specify a minimum date range for permit data? In other words, should a minimum of 1 or 2 years of data be required for compliance? Alternatively, would...
