Reproducibility policy Ecological Society of America

Maybe an interesting collaboration partner for CODECHECK:

> The Ecological Society of America (9000 members, 6 journals with its publishing partner, Wiley) has just today announced an open research policy for its publications. Here is is the key part of the policy:
>
> _"As a condition for publication in ESA journals, all underlying data and statistical code pertinent to the results presented in the publication must be made available in a permanent, publicly accessible data archive or repository, with rare exceptions (see “Details” for more information). Archived data and statistical code should be sufficiently complete to allow replication of tables, graphs, and statistical analyses reported in the original publication, and perform new or meta-analyses. As such, the desire of authors to control additional research with these data and/or code shall not be grounds for withholding material."_

Read the linked ESA blog post and policy details first. The issue mentions no repository files, tests, or concrete change; clarify whether the project should pursue a collaboration before defining what completion would mean.
