ET citation for each release
- will have discussion on ET citation request to cite software not paper
Just to clarify (for all you lurkers on the list), this means we are considering changing the officially recommended way of citing the ET from citing the paper to citing the software (i.e. creating a Zenodo DOI for each release).
There are a number of reasons to do things this way, but at its heart it is a sustainability issue. For software to be sustainable, people must want to work on it. The inability of any new person to receive credit for their contributions to a software project is a de-motivator.
Hopefully, at some point before July 12, when we decide whether to officially make this change, Dan Katz will join the call to make a presentation on his research in this area.

- will have this discussion on May 23rd with final decision on July 12th

Zach reported on progress in NRPy+
Yours, Roland
