Talk:2019/Grants/CiteLearn - an academic tool for learning to cite sources

Hi Simon, thanks much for the application! A few questions to clarify or understand things a little more:

• Do you have a plan for sustainability? New software projects are always exciting, but hard to keep up. You'll be looking to Citation Hunt, which seems to have some good continued activity in GitHub, but Citation Detective is still quite new. But those aside, can you offer thoughts as to how long beyond your initial project you think there's likelihood for others (and any specific others) to join in and contribute?
• Related to this, what license do you plan to release the code under?
• Will you make also make a compiled prototype/version available to the general in advance your testing? (So just after your 3 month development period)

• Could you clarify the difference between Phase 1 and Phase 2? Or rather, we're a little unclear what Phase 2 is.
• Effectiveness -- we appreciate the pre-/post-testing which would not be covered under this project. In terms of thinking how research projects can mitigate risks: at best, your tool will help improve things for users. At worst, it could confuse them. Do you plan to update the metawiki page (we'll assume you create) in the future with these results; does it make sense to put such a disclaimer now? (Clearly, assumption is that you are offering the tool in some way publicly in advance of your future testing).
