Relating to the recent discussion on how scientific software is/should be paid for, this is a question I have been meaning to bring up for some time:
Is it possible to get ISI to index the citations to papers published in the "Computer Program Abstracts" section of J. Appl. Crystallogr.? We published a description of PDFgetX2 in there back in 2004 but my hard working grad student Xiangyun who led that project is not getting any credit despite the program being quite widely used and relatively often cited. Unless this changes, it is the last time I publish a program description in that place! Having said that, I can't find this section in recent editions of JAC....has it disappeared?
