Howto: Registering a DOI for a OSGeo software Project

Requirements

This should be done by a person who represents the software project (member of PSC or similar).

Options

ORCIDs for authors, developers and other project staff can be embedded in the DOI metadata, allowing for proper citation.

Option 1: Upload a snapshot

  • Pro: Takes less than 10 minutes to achieve
  • Pro: Can be extended and superseeded with better integration options. the DOI will stay always valid regardless and will point to the most up to date software version (and author credits)
  • Pro: No need to set webhooks in Zenodo or store description files in GitHub
  • Con: Metadata (author list) must be edited manually. (ORCID option ?)
  • Con: Every software release requires maintenance work by project staff, as an additional tarball must be uploaded and metadata must be updated.

Howto

Examples

Option 2: Create a live link between the GitHub Repo and Zenodo

  • Pro: Immediate automated updates of DOI payload and metadata for each software release on GitHub
  • Con: Takes a bit longer than option 1 (20 minutes ?)

Howto

tbd: Coming real soon

Examples
