I completely agree with applying software engineering skills to this. Not just CI for deployment, but also open-source collaboration. I see research and development in other fields as largely like closed-source silos, and a centralized but evolving ecosystem for information collaboration in any topic is in the works. I know that is definitely one of my driving visions for ibGib, and I can't be the only one. Open source, open data, open collaboration.
