How to get high-quality metadata about software?
For software discovery it is important to have high-quality metadata that describes the software:
- Should be simple for developers to generate
- Easy to maintain and update
- Be indexable and easily searchable
Codemeta was mentioned in Roberto's talk, but there may be other options to look at as well, e.g., the generic schema.org markup (see https://software.ac.uk/resources/guides/adding-schema-dot-org).
