Goals of the manuscript

[ypriverol]

The current manuscript has a couple of goals:

• [ ] Provides statistics about computational proteomics software usability through citations, poll and PRIDE data.

• [ ] Discuss major challenges for software development, build and maintainability. Propose ideas for long term maintainability of bioinformatics and computational proteomics development.

• [ ] Create guidelines and probably a formal community for computational software evaluation, benchmark, documentation, etc that can help journals to improve the quality of computational proteomics software.

Any other?

I think these are pretty broad goals, i.e. an overview of existing tools (statistics), as well as guidelines for software evaluation. I think it'll be useful to focus on a specific topic and establish a consistent narrative.
