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...
