We advocate the establishment and support of dedicated, central RSE groups in German research organisations, with clearly defined tasks, contact points, and, in particular, sustained funding, for the benefit of all researchers in their organisation. +Similar initiatives have been formed in other national contexts (see \autocite{barkerkatz2024,martin2023} and references therein). We provide an overview of the various tasks these teams have and discuss potential realisation strategies, learning from already existing RSE units. Depending on the national research environments and processes that readers are familiar with, the notion of the terms \emph{software} and \emph{research} might differ. diff --git a/positionpaper.bib b/positionpaper.bib index d11d5cf..31c16d6 100644 --- a/positionpaper.bib +++ b/positionpaper.bib @@ -177,6 +177,35 @@ @Online{UtrechtRDM urldate = {2024-03-06}, } +@misc{barkerkatz2024, + author = {Barker, Michelle and + Katz, Daniel S.}, + title = {Resources on how to create a research software + engineering (RSE) group (within an organisation) + or association (national, etc) + }, + month = nov, + year = 2024, + publisher = {Zenodo}, + version = {1.0}, + doi = {10.5281/zenodo.14025418}, + url = {https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.14025418}, +} + +@misc{martin2023, + author = {Kimberly C.
