Hi Anton,

We've already got folks from the Galaxy Project, Reactome, InterMine, and BioPython on board.  And now several more folks are on the Gitter channel as well.  I think we may end up with too many people involved.  (But that's the kind of problem I want to have!  :-)

Also, the project isn't about biology per se. It's about finding papers that reference software projects often in indirect ways.  The software can be from any domain.

And I would argue that identifying where to search and what to search for is up to the people using the software (for example, me), rather than the person developing the software (Chris).

Questions?  I suggest continuing this conversation on gitter.

Cheers, 

Dave C

This can be very interesting potentially. However, to be useful such a tool needs to take into account how real-world researchers (biologists) perform literature searches. Do you have someone who can guide in understanding this "very non-linear" process?

I think that at the end it will be a quite good tool that any researcher can use for dealing with the task, regardless of the research field.
