Hi all,
We're using aesara for statistical modeling in neutrino astronomy (IceCube measurements of the astrophysical diffuse neutrino flux) and would like to give a reference to the library. Is there some preferred way of citation?
Thanks!

It's always great to hear about how this work is used by others, thanks!

I don't think we have a proper citation reference, but we can try to come up with one shortly.

Thanks,
Did you, by chance, come up if one already?
For now, I have put a citation that will appear as

[18] Aesara-Developers, “aesara,” 2023. https://github.com/aesara-devs/aesara.

but also have a couple of days left before the conference organizers want the proceedings to be uploaded. Corrections to the proceedings can also be made afterwards.

The authors list was derived based on current group/org membership and contributions. We have a paper in the works, and we'll likely use that as the reference, but, for now, this should work.

@aesara-devs, if I missed anyone, someone doesn't want to be listed, someone isn't showing up on that contributions page, or anyone has other recommendations, please tell me so I can fix it.

Oh, I forgot, there's also this: https://zenodo.org/record/7662296. We should update it, though.
