DOIs for case studies #38

Open bob-carpenter opened 7 years ago

bob-carpenter commented 7 years ago

@bnicenboim suggested here: https://github.com/stan-dev/stan-dev.github.io/issues/37#issuecomment-309366022

you should think on adding DOIs to the case studies and the Stancon papers. If I want to refer to them in a paper, it's much better than to have a link (and journals usually ask for the DOIs).

We generate DOIs for the software, but we don't know how to generate DOIs for case studies. So any suggestions would be appreciated (feel free to just edit the issue rather than adding comments if there's a concrete workable suggestion).

A suggestion would be to use the Open Science Framework: http://help.osf.io/s/support/m/sharing/l/524208-create-dois-and-arks

But you may need to store a version of the case study, submission there. I'm not sure if this is a problem.

@bnicenboim That looks very interesting at a quick glance.

They want a link; if they also want a copy, it's no problem given that we require them to be open-source licensed anyway. They apparently don't do versioning (didn't even know that was a thing), so we'd have to freeze the DOI-ed version of case studies rather than updating them arXiv-style (actually, we're not even that careful to version---we've just been replacing them).

Any idea about

I started a discourse thread here:

The suggestion came up from Diogo Melo to use zenodo, which we should check out.
