I think I've solved all the wrinkles and created
https://zenodo.org/record/5854676 which gives our base as
doi://10.5281/zenodo.5854676 - and I've added the .zenodo.json file to the
repository so I think it should get picked up in subsequent releases when I
backport it.

Fetching all the contributors from github was a little weird (I'm not sure
I got the number it showed me) plus some of you don't have names - where I
knew who you worked for I've added affiliations but feel free to edit the
file to add affiliations and orcids (https://orcid.org/) if you have them

Peter, please let me know if I've messed this up somehow?
