Hi everyone Whether we like it or not, the academic world runs on the currency of citations. Our scikit-image paper is performing OK (10 citations so far), but I know for a fact that there are many more projects using it, and that the package is not necessarily cited in their publications. I'm therefore asking that, for the benefit of the project, you distribute the paper as widely as possible and encourage those who use the software to cite it. As long as the citations roll in, the devs (many of whom are at academic institutions) can justify spending their time fixing issues and producing newly designed functionality. Thanks and regards, Stéfan Stéfan van der Walt, Johannes L. Schönberger, Juan Nunez-Iglesias, François Boulogne, Joshua D. Warner, Neil Yager, Emmanuelle Gouillart, Tony Yu and the scikit-image contributors. scikit-image: Image processing in Python.
