This is a good suggestion. Thanks, Michael. Some initial search of that list did not lead to any indication, but I will have a second look. Best regards, Adelchi
This may have already been discussed there so a quick look at the archive might also help you. On 01/06/2020 17:34, Adelchi Azzalini wrote:
The new version of a package which I maintain will include a new function which I have ported to R from Matlab. The documentation of this R function indicates the authors of the original Matlab code, reference to their paper, URL of the source code. Question: is this adequate, or should I include them as co-authors of the package, or as contributors, or what else? Is there a general policy about this matter?
