Dear Members of the Historical Reproducibility Interest Group,
 
TL;DR please let us know if you wish to remain a member of the Reproducibility Interest Group. There is a new charter laying out what this group will focus on, which is available now for community feedback.
 
At the last plenary, the session “Computational Reproducibility: What’s Next for RDA?” and its attendees agreed that we should reestablish the historical Reproducibility IG. 
 
The objectives for this group are laid out in the new charter, which is now open for community feedback.  
 
Note that this takes the group in a slightly different direction compared to when it was first established. Over the years, many interest and working groups in the RDA have been tackling elements of reproducibility from more specific angles, either discipline or domain, or technical components. 
 
For this reason, the charter is quite heavily revised from its original form, and as such, we’d like to ask members of the existing group to opt in to continue as members of the reestablished group, so that we have a reasonable indication of the active interest in continuing it.
 
Sincerely,
Reproducibility Interest Group Co-Chairs
Lauren Cadwallader
