(I work in GSA IT, Office of the CTO. I am submitting this as part of our work to ensure GSA complies with the new Federal Source Code Policy.)
GSA needs to create an inventory of all agency source code, whether open source or closed source. The inventory we create will appear on Code.gov. The inventory will contain basic information about each source code repository, but will not include the source code itself. Please read the implementation guide and use it to submit this repository to the inventory by December 5.
Basically, please do one of the following, the details of which are described in the implementation guide:
Submit your metadata via a form (only do this if you cannot add a metadata file to this repository)
Please ensure that every source code repository under the umbrella of this project (e.g., ckanext-geodatagov) contains its own code inventory metadata file.
Let me know if you would like me to open a PR with an example .codeinventory.yml file.
