Hello, I'm sorry I can't be with you all for the workshop, due to maternity leave, but I wanted to point out the Generation R blog that had dedicated a monthly theme to Software Citation last year: https://genr.eu/wp/category/software_citation/

Specifically, here is the blog post about Software Heritage and why software preservation is crucial for citation: Software Preservation: A Stepping Stone for Software Citation

I wish you all a great workshop and I'll be watching for the outputs afterwards. Cheers, Morane
