JOSS paper

[orbeckst]

Write a short software paper on alchemlyb/alchemtest for JOSS.

• Author instructions – create a repo and then submit, ~1000 words, see examples
• authors?
  • any contributor (name on a commit)
  • must edit and ok paper
  • willing to help with revisions (paper/code/docs)

A JOSS paper does not really pre-empt a full scientific paper (such as a "Best practices in free energy calculations" for LiveCOMS, unless this is already in the works) but it would put a citable "stake in the ground".

Opinions @davidlmobley @mrshirts @brycestx @shuail @harlor @dotsdl @alchemistry/alchemlyb ?

I'm up for it. I apologize for my somewhat slow response rates recently. I'm invested in making sure there's a long term replacement for alchemical-analysis. Am teaching a new class, so response rate will stay a bit slow for a couple of months for larger coding things.

Sounds good to me.

Sounds good to me too! Please, let me know if there's anything I can help you with
