@larsvilhuber @kleintob @peter-morrow The sample.yaml attached to this ticket is an example of the kind of metadata we want to collect from authors about a replication package. Please review and comment. The naming and formatting of these metadata fields is secondary at this stage, but if you have strong views on those, please share, as well.

How do you want feedback?

• a direct mapping of the contents of your README to the yaml might be useful. More comments in the yaml might serve that purpose
• controlled vocabulary?

I will make a note that I think this works fine for people who know some of the more automated ways of running code, but for the standard Matlab or Stata user, this will be nowhere close to functional.

• give thought to creating Matlab/Stata/R/python code to natively generate some parts of this
• need to separate software from version - as it stands, this is not actionable, and thus there's little advantage between this and free-form.
