[ww-users] WW -> github -> figshare -> DOI

[Lee W. <wor...@gm...>]

I just learned of this project: https://github.com/arfon/fidgit

Seems like it could possibly be used with what we have today, to get 
Figshare.org to assign a DOI (a permanent "Digital Object Identifier") 
to a particular version of a WorkingWiki project.

i.e.
* Use 
http://lalashan.mcmaster.ca/theobio/projects/index.php/WorkingWiki/Git_interface 
to pull the project from the wiki to a local directory, and push it onto 
github.com
* Use this fidgit thing to put the github version into a Figshare 
project, and have figshare give it a permanent DOI.

Or it might be able to do it without the intermediate github step.

Possibly I should stop making idle comments about DOIs and figure out 
whether I myself have any use for one, and if so, what it would take to 
make it happen...

But I think it would be great to be able to consider a WW wiki a 
publishing platform, in a potential non-journal-dominated world, and 
this would be an important part of it...
