How You Can Help

Release your scientific code! Convince your advisors, students, post-docs and colleagues that good science depends on verifiable results, and that real verification cannot be achieved without publicly available source code.
Contribute to existing projects. Don't reinvent the wheel if there is a pre-existing open source solution.
Write up your software projects as papers when they near completion. Demand recognition as an author for your contribution to science.
Take contributions when they come your way. Cross-pollinate!
Hand over your projects to others when you lose interest.
Spread the word!
