*** Serge Abiteboul (Academie de Science)
# Software embodies a large part of all the technical and scientific knowledge
# that is being developed today.
Software Heritage will create ...
# the largest public archive of software artifacts, which is
an essential infrastructure to grow and disseminate a universal body of knowledge.
*** Jean-Francois Abramatic (ancien directeur du W3C)
# Software is the key to universal access to our web of information.\\
# Software has become an essential component of our daily lives.\\
# Software must be collected, organized, preserved and shared.\\
/We need the Software Heritage project/ to make this goal a reality.
*** Mike Milinkovich (Executive Director, Eclipse Foundation)
# Software is the fabric which binds our personal, social, industrial, and digital lives. ...
#
# It is an important part of our cultural heritage, as well as a significant
# portion of the intellectual efforts of humanity since the invention of the
# digital computer.
The Eclipse Foundation is pleased to support this important effort to
preserve and protect humanity's software legacy.
*** Nenad Medvidovic (Chair, ACM Sigsoft)
# Software is now present everywhere. It is a pillar of our modern societies, and the source code
# of this software embodies our scientific and technological knowledge. In a word, it is our DNA.
We fully support the objective of the Software Heritage project to create a comprehensive public
archive of software artifacts.
*** Diomidis Spinellis (Editor-in-Chief, IEEE Software)
I wish to express my wholehearted support for the Software Heritage
project.
# The vision of IEEE Software is building the community of leading
# software practitioners. The long-term preservation of our community’s work
# and achievements can be an important element for realizing our vision.
*** Carlo Ghezzi (President, Informatics Europe)
We would like to express Informatics Europe’s support to the “Software
Heritage” project.
# Informatics Europe fully support the projects’ mission
# of collecting, organising, preserving and sharing all the software that lies
# at the heart of our culture and our society by creating a largest, curated,
# and public archive of software artifacts, together with extensive metadata.
*** Simon Phipps (ancien président d'OSI)
# Open source software is now the assumed default for the IT industry and for
# every computer user. It is also here to stay for the foreseeable future.
We now need to secure past open source achievements ...
# , not only because they are part of
# human history, but also because they will come in handy centuries from now to
# read today's data.
The Software Heritage project will be the key actor in
making such preservation possible.
