Hi!<br>
<br>
<div align="left">Using Zenodo, registering a DOI is quite simple.
Just create a Zenodo account and link the GDAL GitHub repository
to it. Zenodo provides you a static DOI to reference the whole
project and dynamic DOIs everytime a new version of GDAL is
released on GitHub (to reference specific versions which might be
important when referencing software). New DOIs are created
automatically via a webhook. Custom metadata on Zenodo can be
defined by adding a .zenodo.json file (like <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://git.gfz-potsdam.de/danschef/arosics/-/blob/master/.zenodo.json">this</a>)
to the repository root. Documentation on that is available <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://help.zenodo.org/guides/search/">here</a>.<br>

<p>Hi,<br>

<div class="moz-forward-container">see below. Do we want to do
that ? I'm not seeing any obvious disadvantage, but I've never
worked with DOI before. If so, anyone who want to take the lead
on that ?<br>

Hello Even,<br>
<br>
I'm writing to you as OSgeo Vice President for GDAL concerning
an opportunity for the GDAL project. Could you please forward
the following message to the GDAL PSC - or please tell me about
a better way to contact the PSC directly ?<br>
<br>
Dear GDAL Project Steering Committee,<br>
<br>
I'm reaching out to you because of an opportunity for the PROJ
community, which surfaced recently:<br>
The upcoming second edition of the Springer Handbook of
Geoinformatics will cover the GDAL project. The Handbook project
has been delayed due to the Pandemic, but will be completed in a
few weeks. I am serving as the editor of the Handbook chapter
about Open Source Geoinformatics.<br>
<br>
Recently, new workflows for scientific citation of software
projects have emerged and are becoming state of the art. This
includes references by persistent digital object identifiers
(DOI) to software projects instead of URLs. DOI-based references
allow to give due credit to the whole project team, including
first authors, developers, but also maintainers and people in
other roles.<br>
<br>
The OSGeo projects GRASS GIS, GMT, MapServer, MOSS and rasdaman
have already registered their own DOI, OSGeoLive, pygeoapi and
pycsw will follow soon.<br>
As an example, this is the DOI for GRASS GIS: <a
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5810537"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5810537</a><br>
Hands on information how to register a DOI for a OSGeo project
are available here: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Persistent_identifiers(pid)"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Persistent_identifiers(pid)</a>.<br>
<br>
The Editors of the Springer Handbook agree that including DOI
references for Open Source projects is a win-win-scenario for
the upcoming book and also the OSGeo project communities. They
have extended the production deadline until January 20 to give
additional software projects the opportunity to register a DOI
to be included in the book chapter.<br>
<br>
If the GDAL project reserves or registers a DOI (takes only a
few minutes) before the deadline of January 20, I would gladly
include it in the Open Source Geoinformatics chapter reference
section.<br>
<br>
<br>
Please let me know if you have any questions.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Peter<br>
