Hey Yade Devs,

I am wondering if we have the demand to create a Yade related white paper
publication. The publication would document very Yade specific
functionalities and I imagine some papers might even highlight pieces code.
I think the format would be very flexible, some releases might be 3 pages
with brief summary and figures, while others might be formatted similarly
to a conference paper. In all cases, I think we could maintain a quality
archive by incorporating CrossRef, reviewing the writing/work, and laying
out the documents consistently.

Is it possible for us to set up a conduit for Yade users/devs to release
Yade specific research to the public domain? If so, I'd like to
spearhead the project. If there is some reason why we specifically should
not and cannot do this, please let me know. Otherwise, please take a moment
to read the following questions. If you answer "yes" to either of
these questions, do you mind replying and letting me know? This is my
attempt to gauge interest. If we have none, I will scrap the idea entirely.

   - Do you have any Yade related work that does not fit into a scientific
   journal, but has great value to existing/future Yade users? For example:
   maybe you have some lab notes with figures that exhibit some Yade
   functionality and you'd like to be able to reference this in another
   paper/appendix/supporting material.
   - Do you have a conference/journal paper related to Yade that never
   ended up being published, but you'd like to reference the work?

Best regards,

Robert
