Publish paper on package -> citations #66

Closed karllark closed 1 week ago

karllark commented 6 years ago

Just listened to Arfon Smith's talk at Python in Astronomy 2018 on getting credit for software in astronomy. Publishing a citable paper is one way. The Journal of Open Source Software (JOSS; https://joss.theoj.org/) looks like a good fit for this package. And not too much work. :-)

Package might not quite be ready yet for this. There are a few open issues that should be decided and implemented before "publishing." Make sure the splash from such a publication has a package that makes most people interested. E.g., include MIR extinction. Dust grain model extinction (X-ray region!).
