Create citable reference for pyregion

Open Knusper opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

As someone who uses pyregion quite frequently, it would be very nice if one could also cite it properly in publications. The Astrophysics Source Code Library - short ASCL - is the platform that enables that, and more: http://ascl.net/

I suggest to create an entry for pyregion in the ASCL.

I would rather suggest to make a zenodo entry, that provides a proper DOI, updatable as the software evolves, provides full reproducibility by tracking the version. And it's also indexed by ADS.

An ASCL entry also does not exclude a Zenodo entry. One can add the Zenodo DOI as prefereed citation method to ASCL.
