Additionally, the community invites all to develop projects, in areas of user experience, accessibility, communication with readers, social interactions, alternative metrics, visualization of XML and digital preservation, for which an invitation will be open to software developers , librarians, editors or other specialists who wish to contribute code, advice or time, always taking care of the basic principles of free software and open science.
