This wiki provides the central hub for the public information of the working groups dedicated to software preservation in connection with the Software Heritage initiative. The goal of these working groups is to accompany the growth of the software archive built by Software Heritage, and make sure that proper connections are established with all related initiatives and user and interest groups.

All working groups abide to the general principles set out in the Working Group Process document.

The current working groups are shortly described below:

Expanding the archive

• Source Discovery and Ingestion (SODI)
• Metadata and Linked Data (MELD)

Interconnecting the archive

• Reproducibility of Software (REOS)
• Open Access and Data (OPAD)

Evolving the archive

• Modeling and Ingesting Version control systems (MIV)
• Distribution, Replication and Query (DIREQ)

• Scientific API (SAPI)
• Ethical and Legal Issues and Environment (ELIE)
