There's more and more papers mentioning FriCAS recently.
(doing full text search in arxiv.org)

Searching on google scholar reveals:

3 citations for "FriCAS—An advanced computer algebra system",
2 citations for "FriCAS 1.3. 10—an advanced computer algebra system",
2 citations for "FriCAS—an advanced computer algebra system (2024)"

We should try to unify them.

I suggest to remove package version in
src/doc/sphinx/source/citation.rst, and use a fixed year.

That seems to be the common practice for software citation.

Opinions?

Or the citation should point to the reference book?

Just found out that github supports the "CITATION.cff" file.

And we can apply for a DOI at https://zenodo.org/ .

We should consider that.
