Perhaps if there folks that can participate but are less interested in writing code, we could have someone try to get the McGlinn paper replicated. Started a repo here https://github.com/ropensci/rgbif_mcglinn

Feel free to ixnay this idea - just throwing it out there.

I'd love to take part in this, personally.

sckott commented 10 years ago

Awesome, thanks @williamgunn - that repo is just one paper, but I think we have others in mind in notes somewhere

One low hanging approach would be to see who has submitted datasets (small enough to be csv) and R scripts. Then knit the whole thing together with the bib file extracted (we could automate this), throw together with a Makefile and some pandoc. We could set up a repo with 2-3 high profile papers and say that the pieces are already there and here's how to link them together.
