QC for MS

Laurent pointed me to two packages that are already done/in development. What my plan is, is to leverage the QuaMeter QC metric (evolved from the NIST metrics) and focus on automation and presentation as this is the main hurdle in getting people to do QC IMO.

My idea: A package with a two-part setup. 1) An automated QC metric generator that you launch which then continuously looks for new datafiles. When they appear it calculates the metrics and write the results to an sqlite database. 2) A shiny app that looks for changes in the database and automatically updates the view.

Relevant references: SimpatiQCo; I don't think it is particularly visually appealing, but it pretty much fits your description.

This will approach an automatic online QC solution where run statistics can be queried remotely, and furthermore where it only needs to be set up once (or every time the MS-computer restarts)
