Re: [recommenders-dev] [gsoc] Models API Weekly Report

Hi,

I added the "use show instead of filter" to backlog.
The "n/a vs. unknown" I removed from Olav's previous code because it complicated the code and did not help to understand what's going wrong. The difference between n/a and unknown is minimal and does not help a user to much.

Best,
Marcel
