Hello everyone,

I know that many of you can't join us tomorrow at the Research Software Hackathon.

If you want to see what is happening, you can follow the work on the FORCE11 SCID WG github repository [1] or on our hackathon gitter room [2].

Unfortunately it is complicated to put in place remote access to the different activities.

Feel free to chat on gitter[2], open issues [3] and questions on the repository [1] or comment the working google docs (access to the google docs is possible from the Hackathon README).

Hi Tovo, all,
as Julia said, it was not clear that one of the group chairs would be able to
attend P14, so we did not submit a proposal for the IG meeting.
For the SCID working group, which is a joint effort with FORCE11, after the
Philadelphia kickoff at P13 this time the meeting will be at FORCE2019 in
Edimbourgh, where we organize a full day hackaton, see:

Dear all,
one of the core goals of Software Heritage
is to support reproducible research, and
to this end it provides two essential and unique functionalities:
- a *universal archive* of software source code, because research
software depends on a myriad software components, that need all be archived
and referenced
- a *uniform identifier schema* that abstracts away the details of
source code provenance and version control, based on *intrinsic
identifiers* that are *compatible with git commit hashes *
