Encouraging a wider usage of software derived from research

18 Feb 2020

Dear all,
I'm delighted to share with you a note recently published by the free and
open source software group of the french national council for Open Science, on
encouraging a wider usage of software resulting from research, that provides an
overview of the specificities of software in research, linked to its hybrid
nature: tool, result and object of study.
https://www.ouvrirlascience.fr/opportunity-note-encouraging-a-wider-usag...
It contains a list of actionable recommendations that are quite relevant in
view of our work in this group.
All the best

    I really enjoyed reading this and I am planning on citing parts of it in a paper I am writing. It is just a little hard to do this because the authors are not directly mentioned (only email addresses are given in the end) and there is no DOI to help facilitate the citation. Maybe you can consider also publishing it on Zenodo for example?

    Dear Mohammad,
    the authors are from the French National Council for Open Science. You will
    need to address your questions to them.
