Ambassadeurs

Software Heritage is building the universal software source code archive, that enables a wealth of applications, in the realms of academia, cultural heritage, industry and public administration. We are looking for enthusiastic organizations and individuals to volunteer as ambassadors to help grow the Software Heritage community.

Become a Software Heritage ambassador to support this effort in your area by:

presenting Software Heritage, the services it provides, and its long term mission to key persons in your area
sharing information with relevant mailing lists, venues and contacts
posting Software Heritage news on blogs and social media
identifying code hosting platforms in your area that it is urgent and important to archive
updating the Software Heritage team with your community’s feedback

Software Heritage will offer support to ambassadors by:

Sharing selected relevant material for their specific area
Providing access to the Software Heritage team
Acknowledging ambassador’s name and affiliated organization
Shipping promotional material

Here are a few examples of what ambassadors can do in each of the main areas.

Show researchers how to save and reference research software and how to cite it properly
Contact scientific journals and conferences to recommend archiving research source code in Software Heritage;
Foster Software Heritage as a pillar of Open Science in your institution and research community

Learn and promote the Software Heritage Acquisition Process (SWHAP) for archiving landmark legacy software
Connect with museums, cultural institutions, software preservation initiatives
Talk about the ongoing collaboration with UNESCO
Promote best pratices

Explain how Software Heritage provides a universal, vendor-neutral, persistent software archive, and the reference source code knowledge base for all industry compliance needs
Promote SWHIDs to ensure traceability along the supply chain, across future development and organizational changes

Show how archiving source code in Software Heritage helps public administrations become more transparent and accountable
Explain the importance of collecting, curating and sharing the public source code from public administrations worldwide
Share good practices and promote them in government fora
