Policy makers are another stakeholder.

Policy makers are another stakeholder.

Are you suggesting another row in Table 2? If so, can you say what the values in the other columns would be?

If not, what change would you suggest?

@CaroleGoble - is this very different from 'Funder' as currently listed? If the requirements are the same then perhaps we should list this as 'Funder/Policy maker'?

Yes, I think that Policy Maker should be its own line, in addition to Funder.
wants to (a draft): Understand how software contributes to research
(kind of a looking to the future instead of the past like the funder is currently described)

OR, based on continued discussion:
Policy Makers and Funders both broadly want to understand how software has been used/is being/could be used within academia.

A second use case, if we decide to include: is that of compliance. This would be Funder: wants to check compliance with software creation/sharing/accessibility requirements.

Sounds sensible

We also need to show policy makers that software is important and worth investing in as key infrastructure.
You'd be surprised how hard that is to get across.

Can this discussion be crystallized into a solid suggested addition/change? (or better yet a pull request!)

To minimally address this issue, I added policy maker to the use case Show how funded software has been used in a45daa7.

To @ashleysa's suggestion of a funder use case "check compliance with software creation/sharing/accessibility requirements", I worry that it may be out of scope, because we don't know what the requirements would be.

I'm going to say this one has been addressed (at least on the "policy maker" side), unless there are any concrete suggestions or a PR for a new use case.
