I agree with John ... our work toward standards is unlikely to be recognized beyond those relying on it. that doesn't mean it's not important. It does mean it's sometimes difficult to get funding.

Why does that seem unlikely?  CF is a framework capability, and the users of it 
who write papers likely simultaneously used 100 other framework capabilities as 
they did their research. CF would not stand out any more than their computer's 
operating system or the tool they used to make their plots.

A curse of the infrastructure providers, whose works are long in service but 
rarely explicitly appreciated. :->
