lot of data is stored in .qvd files and it would be nice to read a QVD into a Pandas Dataframe, e.g.:\r\n\r\n```\r\nimport pandas as pd\r\npd.read_qvd(\"filename\")\r\n```\r\nMore information about QVD files:\r\nhttp://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense/3.2/Subsystems/Hub/Content/Scripting/work-with-QVD-files.htm\r\n\r\nI believe to support QVD is difficult, since it is proprietary, but since you managed Excel, I hope it is possible.

is not only the question about high priority, it also a question about limiting the scope of core pandas (because the bigger it gets, the more difficult to maintain). \r\nBut as @jreback said, the best way to go it to implement an external package that provides a `read_qvd`. That will be useful for all people wanting this functionality. And can eventually also show that it is used a lot and then become an optional dependency of pandas."}}
