Open Source Science Organizations to connect with for Software Sustainability

[ekluzek]

At US-RSE-2024 there were many talks about different organizations that help projects with software sustainability. I think we should look into some of these groups and start adopting some of the recommended practices as well as look into metrics for our code.

Here's some notes I took regarding this:

Defining, measuring, and enhancing sustainability in scientific software:

DOE: CASS Consortium for the Advancement of Scientific Software (CASS)

Center for Open-Source Research Software Sustainability and Advancement (CORSA)

OpenSSF Best Practices Badge

CHAOSS (Linux foundation)
Kitware
OpenSSF scorecard and criticality score
