Version 0.2

This minor update gave a bit more functionality to the MVP prototype, even though the version was intended to have a much more impactful feature set. However after some study, the workflow is changing, and so this development branch is being pruned and deployed in preparation for the next batch. The major achievement of this version is the documentation that discusses our approach, as well as the dataset search and listing page that is now available.
