Nowadays it is customary to cite software. It is even required in an increasing number of settings, in particular reproducible science. Debian publishes a software distribution, which can certainly be cited.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts here, it's a valuable point for me knowing that a software distribution such as Debian can be cited.
It is not quite relevant to Debian, but when asking for a grant, your software having citations really helps, whether it is 10, 100 or 1000.
Good point. I agree that as Debian is not a scientific software (or, better: Research Software) I suppose it's in fact not so relevant to the project for now.
I would just write [1] Debian GNU/Linux, version 12.7, the Debian project, https://www.debian.org
I think it is good enough for now for my case. Thanks, -- Joenio Marques da Costa Research Software Engineer http://umr-lisis.fr/membre/joenio GPG: 9B2D 64BF 843D 6DC1 D8C1 752C 2E31 D3FD E6D0 8FF4
