HSF Affiliated Projects and Software - review of nnpdf package from the NNPDF collaboration

[Eduardo Rodrigues]

Dear colleagues,

As you may remember, the HSF has since last year a process for HSF Affiliated Projects and Software and Affiliated Projects and Software Guidelines. Projects and/or software become affiliated following a public evaluation process and according to the guidelines in the second link. You may also remember that community feedback made us improve and simplify the process not that long ago. This one review started before the streamlined process got finalised on the webpages above hence it still follows the old process. It will be the last one to do so and we hope it won't affect in any way the scrutiny by you, our community.

With this email we are happy to let you know that Steve Mrenna (and a little bit of me) evaluated the nnpdf package from the NNPDF collaboration! That you again, Steve!

The (draft) "review" can be found at the following document:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1l7jnv76lx_VRphELhALya45UFEMpx-CRi8kHMfj8Kso/edit?usp=sharing.

Anyone is encouraged to contribute posting comments directly on the GDoc. The deadline for comments is Friday September 5th to allow for a 2-week period, at which point the HSF Steering Group will do the final endorsement based on inputs received.

If you prefer to comment in private, kindly send the SG an email (hsf-st...@googlegroups.com). Proceed the same way if you need any clarification; do not hesitate.

Thank you very much in advance!

Steve + Eduardo for the HSF Steering Group
