Presubmission inquiry for PLoS Computational Biology

[jchodera]

Looks like PLoS Computational Biology requires a pre-submission inquiry: http://www.ploscompbiol.org/static/guidelines#software

Software articles require a presubmission inquiry that includes explanations on how the above criteria are met.

The instructions are here: http://www.ploscompbiol.org/static/guidelines#presubs

Specifically: "Software presubmission inquiries should explain how the proposed Software article meets the following criteria:

• Article describes outstanding open source software of exceptional importance that has been shown to provide new biological insights.
• Software must already be widely adopted, or have the promise of wide adoption by a broad community of users.
• Software must be downloadable anonymously in source code form, with accompanying documentation, and licensed under an Open Source Initiative (OSI) compliant license. "

We should start to put this together...
