This document provides guidance on carefully selecting open source software for adoption and long-term reuse. It emphasizes the importance of evaluating several key factors, such as whether the software meets functional requirements both currently and for the future, has an active user and developer community, provides good documentation and support, remains up to date and interoperable with standards, and has a development roadmap that indicates ongoing support. The document advises asking the developer community questions and provides an example of thoroughly evaluating the Taverna workflow system based on these criteria.

Notas do Editor
- It’s not just about what you think you need now. It’s about what you, your intended software users/developer community need now and in the future Think about sustainability of software
- look at it from the other side: clear overlap, but not the same
- Choosing the wrong software can be expensive: wrong choice, need to replace it, avoid assumptions!
- Not enough time is generally spent on making the right choice
- Community use/need: bioinformatics - Taverna
- Active community: might be lots of people using it, but are they active within the software’s community?
- Programming language: if you plan to develop with it Easy to build/test suite: automated build and test
