"Software is fundamental to research" petition

Created: Thursday 16 October 2014 12:59:29 (UTC)

 

Dear colleagues,

The Software Sustainability Institute (www.software.ac.uk) have started a petition to gather support to recognise the fundamental importance of software to research.

This is in response to the ever increasing reliance on well engineered and sustainable software practices, codes and systems to help support world leading research.

Please visit the change.org page where you can also sign the petition:

https://www.change.org/p/everyone-in-the-research-community-we-must-accept-that-software-is-fundamental-to-research-or-we-will-lose-our-ability-to-make-groundbreaking-discoveries

Please consider supporting this endeavour further by re-tweeting this tweet https://twitter.com/SoftwareSaved/status/522325490754154497
or by mentioning the petition on your social media account(s) e.g.LinkedIn with a status such as “Software is fundamental to research - if you agree, please show your support: http://lnkd.in/b2fea5F".

You could also send an email to any groups that you are a member of or directly contact anyone you know who has the ear of the research community and ask them to sign up.

Thanks in advance,
Aleksandra Nenadic
(On behalf of the Software Sustainability Institute)
