  Description     : Compare the names of companies and people with normalisation

  Generate fingerprints for entity data. A fingerprint in this context is
  understood as a simplified entity identifier, derived from it's name or
  address and used for cross-referencing of entity across different datasets.
  .
  Examples:
  .
    - Mr. Sherlock Holmes -> holmes sherlock
    - Siemens Aktiengesellschaft -> ag siemens
    - New York, New York -> new york
 
I plan to maintain this package as part of the Python team.
