Specifically, the work package addresses the following aspects in a sustainable manner:
* Researchers should be trained and supported to enable them to develop and publish high-quality, sustainable software.
* A technological infrastructure for the planning, development, quality assurance, publication and findability of research software should be made permanently available to researchers.
* The re-use of existing software by researchers is to be improved by providing tools for finding suitable software solutions, by arranging contact persons and know-how carriers, and by providing support in setting up communities for concrete research software.
