Write event when data source is offline

    Declined - At the time we will not be implementing this idea since it does not align with our current data collection strategy.

    The EF and notification idea is a great idea to assure data flow, but in a few weeks, months, years how does a user know that the data source was offline in that period (and therefore the data are interpolated junk)?

    Easy to do manually, we just created an event frame analyses at the Data Source level and look at the DataSourceState to create the event, then we have notifications to contact the correct person. Comes in handy since the current version has a bug that reconnects after a disconnection, but data doesn't flow. Works very well and now minimizes our data loss.
