Currently, in BIDS dataset_description.json, there is only one authors list. It has the following description:
List of individuals who contributed to the creation/curation of the dataset.
The description is so vague that it's almost impossible to distinguish who has contributed to which version of the dataset. Currently, bids2openminds assumes that the authors' list is for the dataset version and doesn't assign any authors for the dataset itself. Another possible option could be to assume that both the dataset version and the dataset have the same authors' list. This approach has the advantage that, from a curation standpoint, deleting an author is easier than adding one (meaning the curator can delete the authors from the authors' list of dataset versions and datasets so that only contributing authors to that specific version remain).
