Adding a publiccode.yml file?

publiccode.yml presents itself as a "metadata standard for public software": it was developed by Team Digitale from the italian administration and some French public sector open source projects start using this standard.

We (at the Free Software unit of DINUM) deployed this online publiccode editor as a way to promote the adoption of this standard.

We believe it can help promote generic open source tools developed by the administration - correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like tell-me is exactly this :)

Would you consider adding such a file at the root of your repository?

You can see examples here and there.

Let me know if you have any question, I'd be glad to answer - and in French on mattermost.incubateur.net where I'm bzg.

Hi and thanks for the suggestion. I didn't even know this even existed! I need first to focus on finalizing a stable-enough release in order to publish the v1.0.0 version but I'll integrate it for this first version and ask for your help if I'm not sure about how to write and test it.
