Fellow package authors,
I have been reviewing a number of Bioconductor packages for a publication,
and for that purpose I have been interested in citing numerous packages.
For (too many) packages it has been (too) hard to find the relevant
information.
Let me remind you of the CITATION file and the command
R> citation("PKGNAME")
which allows someone like me to quickly get the relevant citation for the
package. See R-extensions. Sometimes it is complicated (see for example
limma, where different methods require different citations), and the
vignette seems to be a good place to put this. In fact, I would always
have a citation section in the vignette.
Many of us would like credit for our work in the form of citations; let us
not make it hard on the user to figure out how to do this.
Best,
Kasper
