Links to Zika virus paper
Bob opens up an interesting topic, perhaps not really fit for this mailing list, of which packages to cite. Most packages load dependencies. Should these dependencies be cited? How do you handle this issue in citing packages? Cheers, Roman

Agreed it was great to see "Each of the 300 individual models was
fitted using the gbm.step subroutine in the dismo package in the R
statistical programming environment (Elith et al. 2008)" in there and
also agreed that the following should have made it into the citations
(assuming only library(dismo) was done which is a terrible assumption
:-). Many thanks to Roger, Edzer (et al) as well. Critial,
foundational work which made this paper possible.

Great stuff, but sadly I don't see the either R itself or the dismo package cited in the journal article - the one mention of dismo gets a reference to a paper (Elith, J., J. R. Leathwick & T. Hastie (2008) A working guide to boosted regression trees. J Anim Ecol, 77, 802-13) and nothing else. *sigh* Barry
