Just out of curiosity, will it be free forever and you will pay for the hosting?
Do you plan to get some revenue from it somehow?
Also, do you plan to open source the whole project?
- jpallen 10y agoI plan to charge a small monthly (possibly yearly) fee to cover hosting, yes. If there's demand for the front-end being open sourced, then yes. I suspect that the people who'd be willing to host the front-end would have an easier time just editing the Jekyll template YAML directly though, which is already open source: https://github.com/academicbio/academic-minima https://github.com/academicbio/academic-minima
- p4bl0 10y agoAnother option would be to allow institutions (e.g., universities, labs) to subscribe to your service to offer it to their members under their own domain name with a custom template? If you are able to interface with OAI-PMH to retrieve publication list for each author automatically from the university local repository (which they increasingly tend to have), I bet they would totally love that (as it would be an incentive for researchers to curate and update their publications list in the university repository).
