launched last year.
....what did people think?
some big requests
expected:
more package library systems (esp bioconductor)
more languages (import detection complexity)
more platforms like bitbucket (esp to get commit history for authorship)
better deduplication (no orcid, alas)
things that aren't on a version control system at all (not happening)
outstanding challenge:
deciding what is a research package in python(important b/c refset matters)
future plans:
more advanced text mining
