Having entered 2021, it was necessary to update the years of all the
copyright statements.
|
|
There were only three very small conflicts that have been fixed.
|
|
Until now, the build strategy of the paper was to have a single output PDF
that either contains (1) the full paper with appendices in the same paper
(2) only the main body of the paper with no appencies.
But the editor in chief of CiSE recently recommended publishing the
appendices as supplements that is a separate PDF (on its webpage). So with
this commit, the project can make either (1) a single PDF (containing both
the main body and the appendices) that will be published on arXiv and will
be the default output (this is the same as before). (2) two PDFs: one that
is only the main body of the paper and another that is only the appendices.
Since the appendices will be printed as a PDF in any case now, the old
'--no-appendix' option has been replaced by '--supplement'. Also, the
internal shell/TeX variable 'noappendix' has been renamed to
'separatesupplement'.
|
|
Until now there was only a 'clean' (to delete all files created during the
'make' phase) and the 'distclean' (to delete all files during configuration
and make). But sometimes we don't want to delete all the files created
during the full 'make' phase, we only want to delete the files that were
created by LaTeX for building the paper.
Witht this commit, a new target has been added for this job. You can now
run the following command for this job:
./project make texclean
Only the files in '$(BDIR)/tex/build' will be deleted (and the 'tikz'
directory under that location is recreated, ready for a future build).
|
|
Having entered 2021, it was necessary to update the copyright years at the
top of the source files. We recommend that you do this for all your
project-specific source files also.
|
|
Until now, there was no warning when the 'maneage' branch didn't exist in
the Git history. This can happen when you forget to push the 'maneage'
branch to a remote for your project, and you later clone your project from
that remote (for example on another computer). We use the 'maneage' branch
to report the latest commit hash and date in the final paper (which can
greatly help future readers). Since we check the 'maneage' branch on every
run of './project make' (in 'initialize.mk') this would result in a printed
statement like this:
fatal: Not a valid object name maneage
Also until now, the description of what to do when TeXLive wasn't installed
properly wasn't complete: it didn't mention that it is necessary to delete
the TeXLive target files. This could confuse users (they would re-run
'./project configure -e', but with no effect).
With this commit, for the 'maneage' branch issue a complete warning will be
printed. Telling the user what to do to get the 'maneage' branch (and thus
fix this warning). Also, the LaTeX macros that go in the paper are now red
when the 'maneage' branch doesn't exist, telling the user to see the
printed warning (thus encouraging the user to get the branch). For the
TeXLive issue, the necessary commands to run are now also printed in the
warning.
|
|
Some minor conflicts that came up during the merge were fixed.
|
|
Until now, Maneage only provided the commit hashes (of the project and
Maneage) as LaTeX macros to use in your paper. However, they are too
cryptic and not really human friendly (unless you have access to the Git
history on a computer).
With this commit, to make things easier for the readers, the date of both
commits are also available as LaTeX macros for use in the paper. The date
of the Maneage commit is also included in the acknowledgements.
Also, the paragraph above the acknowledgements has been updated with better
explanation on why adding this acknowledgement in the science papers is
good/necessary.
|
|
This only concerns the TeX sources in the default branch. In case you don't
use them, there should only be a clean conflict in 'paper.tex' (that is
obvious and easy to fix). Conflicts may only happen in some of the
'tex/src/preamble-*.tex' files if you have actually changed them for your
project. But generally any conflict that does arise by this commit with
your project branch should be very clear and easy to fix and test.
In short, from now on things will even be easier: any LaTeX configuration
that you want to do for your project can be done in
'tex/src/preamble-project.tex', so you don't have to worry about any other
LaTeX preamble file. They are either templates (like the ones for PGFPlots
and BibLaTeX) or low-level things directly related to Maneage. Until now,
this distinction wasn't too clear.
Here is a summary of the improvements:
- Two new options to './project make': with '--highlight-new' and
'--highlight-notes' it is now possible to activate highlighting on the
command-line. Until now, there was a LaTeX macro for this at the start
of 'paper.tex' (\highlightchanges). But changing that line would change
the Git commit hash, making it hard for the readers to trust that this
is the same PDF. With these two new run-time options, the printed commit
hash will not changed.
- paper.tex: the sentences are formatted as one sentence per line (and one
line per sentence). This helps in version controlling narrative and
following the changes per sentence. A description of this format (and
its advantages) is also included in the default text.
- The internal Maneage preambles have been modified:
- 'tex/src/preamble-header.tex' and 'tex/src/preamble-style.tex' have
been merged into one preamble file called
'tex/src/preamble-maneage-default-style.tex'. This helps a lot in
simply removing it when you use a journal style file for example.
- Things like the options to highlight parts of the text are now put in
a special 'tex/src/preamble-maneage.tex'. This helps highlight that
these are Maneage-specific features that are independent of the style
used in the paper.
- There is a new 'tex/src/preamble-project.tex' that is the place you
can add your project-specific customizations.

This commit fixes the error of trying to run bibtex on
appendix.tex when the --no-appendix option is selected.
A hardwired hack, appropriate only for this specific paper,
replaces the more-than-three-author parts of two long author
lists by "et al." To test this without having to redownload
the menke file, first do
"rm -fv .build/tex/build/*.aux .build/tex/build/*.bbl"
and then "./project make --no-appendix" a few times.
This commit should reduce the word length by about 70 words.
|
|
This commit updates "paper.tex" and "peer-review/1-answer.txt"
for the first 15 (out of 59!) reviewer points, excluding
points 2 (not yet done) and 9 (README-hacking.md needs
tidying).
A fix to "reproduce/analysis/make/paper.mk" for the
links in the appendices is also done in this commit (the same
algorithm as for paper.tex is added). The links in the appendices
are not (yet) clickable.
|
|
A new directory has been added at the top of the project's source called
'peer-review'. The raw reviews of the paper by the editors and referees has
been added there as '1-review.txt'. All the main points raised by the
referees have been listed in a numbered list and addressed (mostly) in
'1-answers.txt'. The text of the paper now also includes all the
implemented answers to the various points.
|
|
Until now, the core Maneage 'paper.tex' had a '\highlightchanges' macro
that defines two LaTeX macros: '\new' and '\tonote'.
When '\highlightchanges' was defined, anything that was written within
'\new' became dark green (highlighting new things that have been
added). Also, anything that was written in '\tonote' was put within a '[]'
and became dark red (to show that there is a note here that should be
addressed later).
When '\highlightchanges' wasn't defined, anything within the '\new' element
would be black (like the rest of the text), and the things in '\tonote'
would not be shown at all.
Commenting the '\newcommand{\highlightchanges}{}' line within 'paper.tex'
(to toggle the modes above) would create a different Git hash and has to be
committed.
But this different commit hash could create a false sense in the reader
that other things have also been changed and the only way they could
confirm was to actually go and look into the project history (which they
will not usually have time to do, and thus won't be able to trust the two
modes of the text).
Also, the added highlights and the note highlights were bundeled together
into one macro, so you couldn't only have one of them.
With this commit, the choice of highlighting either one of the two is now
done as two new run-time options to the './project' script (which are
passed to the Makefiles, and written into the 'project.tex' file which is
loaded into 'paper.tex'). In this way, we can generate two PDFs with the
same Git commit (project's state): one with the selected highlights and
another one without it.
This issue actually came up for me while implementing the changes here: we
need to submit one PDF to the journal/referees with highlights on the added
features. But we also need to submit another PDF to arXiv and Zenodo
without any highlights. If the PDFs have different commit hashes, the
referees may associate it with other changes in any part of the work. For
example https://oadoi.org/10.22541/au.159724632.29528907 that mentions
"Another version of the manuscript was published on arXiv: 2006.03018",
while the only difference was a few words in the abstract after the journal
complained on the abstract word-count of our first submission (where the
commit hashes matched with arXiv/Zenodo).
|
|
With the optional appendices added recently to the paper, it was important
to go through them and make them more fitting into the paper.
|
|
Until now, when the 'pdf-build-final' configuration variable (defined in
'reproduce/analysis/config/pdf-build.conf') was given any string a PDF
would be built. This was very confusing, because people could put a 'no'
and the PDF would still be built!
With this commit, only when this variable has a value of 'yes' will the PDF
be built. If given any other string (or no string at all), it will not
produce a PDF.
This issue was reported by Zahra Sharbaf.
|
|
Given the referee reports, after discussing with the editors of CiSE, we
decided that it is important to include the complete appendix we had before
that included a thorough review of existing tools and methods. However, the
appendix will not be published in the paper (due to the strict word-count
limit). It will only be used in the arXiv/Zenodo versions of the paper.
This actually created a technical problem: we want the commit hash of the
project source to remain the same when the paper is built with an appendix
or without it.
To fix this problem the choice of including an appendix has gone into the
'project' script as a run-time option called '--no-appendix'. So by default
(when someone just runs './project make'), the PDF will have an appendix,
but when we want to submit to the journal, or when the appendix isn't
needed for a certain reason, we can use this new option. The appendix also
has its own separate bibliography.
Some other corrections made in this commit:
1. Some new references were added that had an '_' in their source, they
were corrected in 'references.tex'.
2. I noticed that 'preamble-style.tex' is not actually used in this paper,
so it has been deleted.
|
|
The LaTeX macro files for these two subMakefiles are created on every run
of './project make'. So their commands are also printed every time and
hardly ever will a normal user want to modify or change these.
So to avoid populating the standard output of a Maneaged project with all
these extra lines every time (possibly getting mixed with the important
analysis or LaTeX outputs), an '@' has been placed at the start of the
recipes. With an '@' at the start of the recipe, Make is instructed to not
print the commands it wants to run in the standard output.
|
|
Until now, the core Maneage branch included some configuration files for
Gnuastro's programs. This was actually a remnant of the distant past when
Maneage didn't actually build its own software and we had to rely on the
host's software versions. This file contained the configuration files
specific to Gnuastro for this project and also had a feature to avoid
checking the host's own configuration files.
However, we now build all our software ourselves with fixed configuration
files (for the version that is being installed and its version is
stored). So those extra configuration files were just extra and caused
confusion and problems in some scenarios. With this commit, those extra
files are now removed.
Also, two small issues are also addressed in parallel with this commit:
- When running './project make clean', the 'hardware-parameters.tex' macro
file (which is created by './project configure' is not deleted.
- The project title is now written into the default output's PDF's
properties (through 'hypersetup' in 'tex/src/preamble-header.tex')
through the LaTeX macro.
All these issues were found and fixed with the help of Samane Raji.
|
|
Only two small conflicts came up:
* The addition of the hardware architecture macro in 'paper.tex' (which
was removed for now, but will be added as the referee has requested
within the text).
* The usage of "" around directory variables in 'paper.mk'.
|
|
Until now, no machine-related specifications were being documented in the
workflow. This information can become helpful when observing differences in
the outcome of both software and analysis segments of the workflow by
others (some software may behave differently based on host machine).
With this commit, the host machine's 'hardware class' and 'byte-order' are
collected and now available as LaTeX macros for the authors to use in the
paper. Currently it is placed in the acknowledgments, right after
mentioning the Maneage commit.
Furthermore, the project and configuration scripts are now capable of
dealing with input directory names that have SPACE (and other special
characters) by putting them inside double-quotes. However, having spaces
and metacharacters in the address of the build directory could cause
build/install failure for some software source files which are beyond the
control of Maneage. So we now check the user's given build directory
string, and if the string has any '@', '#', '$', '%', '^', '&', '*', '(',
')', '+', ';', and ' ' (SPACE), it will ask the user to provide a different
directory.
|
|
Some very minor conflicts came up and were easily corrected. They were
mostly in parts that are also shared with the demonstration in the core
Maneage branch.
|
|
The '.bbl' suffix in the comment of one call to LaTeX was incorrectly
written as '.bb'.
|
|
One of the LaTeX macros reported by 'initialize.mk' is the git commit hash
of the most recent 'maneage' branch that the project has been branched
from. However, not all projects will retain the maneage reference. This can
happen for example when people don't push the 'maneage' reference to their
repository and then clone from their own repository to a second
computer. Therefore, until now, in such situations, Maneage would break
with an error.
With this commit, in such scenarios, a place holder string is used instead,
clearly highlighting that there is no 'maneage' reference.
|
|
There are many different directory trees involved in Maneage system: the
top directory, the 'reproduce/' directory and its sub-directories,
'.build/' (that point to a user-defined build area), and a possibly
user-defined input directory. Until now, in the case of a download checksum
failure, it was not immediately obvious [1] to the user *where* the file
with a failed checksum is.
To clarify to the user *where* the suspicious file is now located, this
commit adds a line to 'reproduce/analysis/make/download.mk' to print out
this full path location: '$$unchecked' along with the expected and
calculated checksums.
[1] Euphemism for me spending lots of time debugging and being confused.

This commit clarifies the initial usage of Zenodo for reserving a Zenodo
identifier and starting an 'unpublished' upload. Some other minor wording
changes are done here.
|
|
Until this commit, the '$(project-package-contents)' rules in
'reproduce/analysis/make/initialize.mk' included a line to provide all
contents, recursively, of the directory 'reproduce/' in the package for
further distribution.
This could potentially lead to the distribution of private working files
that are used during development and not intended for general distribution.
With this commit, only those files in 'reproduce/' and 'tex/src' that are
under version control are copied to the temporary directory (that is later
used for creating an archive). With this change, the archiving commands
actually became more clean (we don't have to manually remove 'LOCAL.conf'
or other temporary files). Extensive comments have also been added above
each step to clarify each step's purpose and method.
|
|
Until now the './project make dist' command implicitly assumed that the
'tex/tikz' directory always contains PDF files (because of the 'cp
tex/tikz/*.pdf $$dir/tex/tikz' line). This was annoying for projects that
don't use TiKZ or PGFPlots to generate their plots, and they had to
manually comment this line.
With this commit a check has been placed to see if any PDF files exist in
there at all. If there aren't PDF files, the 'cp' command above is ignored.
|
|
Until now, when the bibliography file ('paper.bbl') had a LaTeX-related
error (for example the journal name was a LaTeX macro that isn't defined),
the first 'pdflatex' command that is run before 'biber' would crash, not
allowing the project to reach 'biber'. So the user would have to manually
remove 'paper.bbl' before running './project make'.
With this commit, we remove any possibly existing 'paper.bbl' file before
rebuilding it. Generally, this also helps in keeping things clean during
the generation of the new bibliography.
This bug was found by Mahdieh Nabavi.
|
|
To help in the documentation, the Git hash of the Maneage branch commit
that the project has most recently merged with (or branched from) is now
also provided as a LaTeX macro ('\maneageversion').
It is calculated in 'reproduce/analysis/make/initialize.mk' (in the recipe
to 'initialize.tex').
|
|
Until now, the dataset's configuration names had a 'WFPC2' prefix. But this
very alien to anyone that is not familiar with the history of the Hubble
Space Telescope (the camera is no longer used! Its just used here since its
one of the standard FITS files from the FITS standard webpage).
With this commit the variable names have been modified to be more readable
and clear (having a 'DEMO-' prefix). Also the comments of 'INPUTS.conf'
(describing the purpose of each variable) were edited and made more clear.
|
|
In 'README.md' I tried to explain a little better that TeXLive will only
install its necessary packages, not the full TeXLive library! Also in
paper.mk, I slightly improved the comments with very minor edits.
Both these parts are slated to go into the core Maneage branch, so its
important to maintain them here for now.
|
|
Until now, when the user wanted to complete remove all built files
(including software), the './project make distclean' command would fail if
the git hooks weren't installed. They are present when the project's
configuration has been successfully finished, but this bug can happen when
trying to re-do an incomplete build.
With this commit, this is fixed by adding an '-f' has been added before the
'rm' command for the Git hooks.
This commit was also done in the core Maneage branch.

|
|
Until now, the Zenodo identifier was manually written in the paper. But now
we have the Zenodo DOI in 'metadata.conf', so its much more robust to get
it from there (in case updated versions of the paper is published).
|
|
Only two conflicts came up in the newly added comments of 'paper.mk' in the
Maneage branch. It happened because in this project we don't use
'pdflatex', but 'latex' alone.
|
|
Until this commit, the file `BDIR/software/preparation-done.mk' were not
removed when cleaning the project with `./project make clean'. This file
is generated in the preparation of the data during the analysis step.
However, the cleaning is expected to remove anything generated in the
analysis process! Step by step, with the commands:
./project make ---> Will make the preparation and analysis
./project make clean ---> Will remove all analysis outputs (but
not `preparation-done.mk')
./project make ---> Won't do the preparation, only analysis!
However, in the last step it should do the preparation again, because
the input data could have change for any reason. With this commit, the
file `BDIR/software/preparation-done.mk' is removed when cleaning the
project, and consequently, in the analysis step the input data is
prepared.

The 'pdflatex' program is used to build the default Maneage-branch paper.
But since the default paper uses PGFPlots to build the figures within LaTeX
as an external PDF, PGFPlots requires 'pdflatex' to be called with the
'-shell-escape' option. Generally, this option can be considered as a
security risk (in particular when 'pdflatex' is being run by an external
LaTeX file: a malicious LaTeX writer may embed commands in the LaTeX source
that will be executed on the host if this option is present).
This is not too serious of an issue in Maneage, because when someone runs
Maneage, they intentionally let it run many on their system. Hence if
someone wants to exploit a host system, they can add the necessary commands
long before 'pdflatex' is run. After all, all commands in Maneage are run
with the calling user's permissions, hence they have access to many parts
of the user's accounts. If someone is worried about security on a
non-trusted Maneage project they should act the same as they do with any
software: define a new user for it, and call it with that user (as a
weak-level security), or run it in a virtual machine or container.
However, since this option has been explicity mentioned as a security risk
before, it helps if we have a comment explaining its usage in 'paper.mk'.
With this commit, the concerned user will read a brief explanation and can
read the brief discussion at [1] and possibly re-open the discussion or
propose ways of mitigating the security risk(s).

When publishing a project, it is necessary to also publish the source code
of all necessary software of the project. We had recently added a new
'./project make' target called 'dist-software' for this job, but had
forgotten to add it in the output of './project --help'! There was also a
small bug inside of it that didn't allow the successful copying of the
created tarball to the top project directory.
With this commit, an explanation for this target has been added in the
output of './project --help' and that bug has been fixed.
|
|
As described in Maneage's commit 2bd2e2f18 (which I found while testing
this project), the existing download recipe had problems when using a local
copy of the input dataset. It was first fixed here, then implemented there.
Also, to clarify things for a new user, some long comments were added at
the top of 'INPUTS.conf' to describe each of the variables, that comment
has also been put here (and is also in commit 2bd2e2f18 of Maneage).
|
|
Summary of possible semantic conflicts
1. The recipe to download input datasets has been modified. You have to
re-set the old 'origname' variable to 'localname' (to avoid confusion)
and the default dataset URL should now be complete (including the
actual filename). See the newly added descriptions in 'INPUTS.conf' for
more on this.
Until now, when the dataset was already present on the host system, a link
couldn't be made to it, causing the project to crash in the checksum
phase. This has been fixed with properly naming the main variable as
'localname' to avoid the confusion that caused it.
Some other problems have been fixed in this recipe in the meantime:
- When the checksum is different, the expected and calculated checksums
are printed.
- In the default paper, we now print the full URL of the dataset, not just
the server, so the checksum of the 'download.tex' step has been updated.
|
|
Until now, in the 'print-copyright' function of 'initialize.mk' (that
prints a fixed set of common meta necessary in plain-text files), we were
simply printing this line:
# Pre-print server: arXiv:1234.56789
But given that all the other elements are click-able URLs, it now prints:
# Pre-print server: https://arxiv.org/abs/1234.56789
|
|
There were two small warnings that are removed with this commit:
- In the end, when we print the number of words in the PDF, we hadn't
accounted for the fact that 'paper.pdf' doesn't always exist (for
example when './project make clean' is run). So a check was added to
only print the number of words when a PDF exists.
- I noticed that the '$(texdir)/to-publish' directory was being built both
in 'initialize.mk' and in 'demo-plot.mk'. So the one in 'demo-plot.mk'
has been removed.
|
|
Some minor conflicts came up in 'initialize.mk' and 'verify.mk'. For the
former, I chose the version on Maneage, for the latter, I kept the 'master'
version on the checksums of this project, but kept the Maneage version for
the rest of the improvements there (like printing the verified files as
LaTeX comments in 'verify.tex'.
While testing the conflicts, I noticed a bug (in the LaTeX macro for the
number of years in the Menke+20 paper) in the previous build, thanks to the
verification step :-)! Fortunately it wasn't actually printed in the PDF,
so a normal reader won't recognize.
The bug was caused by the recently added meta-data/commented lines in the
'tools-per-year.txt' file: when calculating the number of years studied in
that paper, we were simply counting all the lines and we had forgot to
correct this after adding comments. As a result, the un-used LaTeX macro
file was saying that they have studied 47 years instead of the real 31
years! This element was actually used in the very first (+40 page!) draft
of the paper that was summarized to fit into the journal limits.

Possible semantic conflicts (that may not show up as Git conflicts but may
cause a crash in your project after the merge):
1) The project title (and other basic metadata) should be set in
'reproduce/analysis/conf/metadata.conf'. Please include this file in
your merge (if it is ignored because of '.gitattributes'!).
2) Consider importing the changes in 'initialize.mk' and 'verify.mk' (if
you have added all analysis Makefiles to the '.gitattributes' file
(thus not merging any change in them with your branch). For example
with this command:
git diff master...maneage -- reproduce/analysis/make/initialize.mk
3) The old 'verify-txt-no-comments-leading-space' function has been
replaced by 'verify-txt-no-comments-no-space'. The new function will
also remove all white-space characters between the columns (not just
white space characters at the start of the line). Thus the resulting
check won't involve spacing between columns.
A common set of steps are always necessary to prepare a project for
publication. Until now, we would simply look at previous submissions and
try to follow them, but that was prone to errors and could cause
confusion. The internal infrastructure also didn't have some useful
features to make good publication possible. Now that the submission of a
paper fully devoted to the founding criteria of Maneage is complete
(arXiv:2006.03018), it was time to formalize the necessary steps for easier
submission of a project using Maneage and implement some low-level features
that can make things easier.
With this commit a first draft of the publication checklist has been added
to 'README-hacking.md', it was tested in the submission of arXiv:2006.03018
and zenodo.3872248. To help guide users on implementing the good practices
for output datasets, the outputs of the default project shown in the paper
now use the new features). After reading the checklist, please inspect
these.
Some other relevant changes in this commit:
- The publication involves a copy of the necessary software
tarballs. Hence a new target ('dist-software') was also added to
package all the project's software tarballs in one tarball for easy
distribution.
- A new 'dist-lzip' target has been defined for those who want to
distribute an Lzip-compressed tarball.
- The '\includetikz' LaTeX macro now has a second argument to allow
configuring the '\includegraphics' call when the plot should not be
built, but just imported.
|
|
This paper doesn't use pdflatex or biblatex, so it was necessary to make
some small corrections in the make-dist rule of initialize.mk. Also, while
testing the upload on arXiv, I noticed that it complains about an empty
'verify.tex' file, so that is also corrected.
|
|
All the steps following the to-be-added (in 'README-hacking.md')
publication checklist prior to the final check from new clone have been
added:
- 'README.md' file has been set.
- "Reproducible supplement" was added just above the keywords, pointing to
Zenodo.
- A link to the to-be-uploaded data underlying the plot was added in the
caption of the tools-per-year plot.
- A new meta-data configuration file was added to store basic project
metadata to be used throughout the project. This will later be taken
into Maneage. For examle the project title is now stored here and
written into the paper's LaTeX source and output datasets automatically.
- Verification was activated and plot's data and LaTeX macro files are now
automatically verified.
- A complete metadata was added for the data underlying the plot.
- A generic function was added in 'initialize.mk' that will automatically
write project info and copyright in all plain-text outputs.

The minor conflict was with 'reproduce/software/make/high-level.mk', and in
particular because we implemented the fix to Maneage's Task #15664 in this
project first. After it was moved to the main Maneage branch some minor
stylistic corrections were done to it, thus causing the conflict. To
resolve the conflict, I simply imported the full Maneage version of the
file with this command:
git checkout maneage -- reproduce/software/make/high-level.mk
The other conflicts were due to the deleted files (that were resolved as
described in 'README-hacking.md') and the LaTeX files that I had told
'.gitattributes' to ignore from the Maneage branch.

Publishing a paper on reproducible research without making it easy for
readers to read the references would defeat the point. Of course we have to
make some compromises with some journals' reluctance to shift towards the
free world, but to satisfy scientific ethics, we should at least provide
clickable URLs to the references, preferably to the ArXiv version if
available [1], and also to the DOI, again, preferably to an open-access
version of the URL if available.
I was not able to fully get this done in the .bst file, so there's an
sed/tr hack done to the .bbl file in `reproduce/analysis/make/paper.mk` to
tidy up commas and spaces.
This commit also reverts some of the hacks in the Akhlaghi IAU Symposium
`tex/src/references.tex` entry, to match the improved .bst file,
`tex/src/IEEEtran_openaccess.bst`, provided here with a different name to
the original, in order to satisfy the LaTeX licence.

In time, some of the copyright license description had been mistakenly
shortened to two paragraphs instead of the original three that is
recommended in the GPL. With this commit, they are corrected to be exactly
in the same three paragraph format suggested by GPL.
The following files also didn't have a copyright notice, so one was added
for them:
reproduce/software/make/README.md
reproduce/software/bibtex/healpix.tex
reproduce/analysis/config/delete-me-num.conf
reproduce/analysis/config/verify-outputs.conf

Following the fact that the DSJ editor decided that this paper doesn't fit
into their scope, we decided to submit it to IEEE's Computing in Science
and Engineering (CiSE). So with this commit the text was re-written to fit
into their style and word-count limitations.
