About
Currently how to cite software is not clear or technically resolved, and secondly the documentation of basic information (metadata) that a software maker should provide is also not clearly defined so that researchers looking to use published works do not have enough information to act on.
Guidance is needed on both issues and we can engage with key players working on these problems.

Citation
- Theme announce: possibly we announce themes?
- Blog: Open Science Barcamp – report on software citation by moderator, Sophia Doerner sophia.doerner@hu-berlin.de
- Blog: Software Citation 'How-to' article and follow on forum – Katrin Leinweber TIB, title: Concrete advice for more sustainable scientific software projects. On private TIB Git https://git.tib.eu/leinweberk/FAIR-Data-Prinzipien-auf-Software-anwenden
- Forum/how-tos: The Software Citation community - get them onto the forum to help move things forward. I now have the contacts and literature from #OSBarcamp
- Blog/ resource: someone could give the top 3 lit, news sites, projects, citation managers to use: Literature and projects (provisional) https://www.zotero.org/groups/1838445/o-s/items/tag/software-cite
Issues and questions:
Lobby OpenAIRE to include software. Currently OpenAIRE policy is not to include it – forum issue
Reuse
- Blog no writer yet: #Editorial 2. discourse. How software is described and documented so that its citation can be of use to future practitioners and readers of research publications. Possibly Stephan Druskat (HU Berlin, Citation File Format, @stdruskat, http://orcid.org/0000-0003-4925-7248) of https://research-software.org/citation/
How to break the topic down
- Journals do give guidance
- Style guides give guidance
- Citation managers have software included as a designated source
The Future?
Discover and run scientific code, Code Ocean https://codeocean.com/
Simulations in the browser, Jupyter https://jupyter.org/ and Binder to republish https://mybinder.org
Continuos Integration and validation, with dependencies and full contributor audit
Create a grid for the theme
To include: timeline, issues, keywords, who to name check, questions to ask.
