Propose Binder as fundamental ESAP interactive interface
Discussion with WP3 have swirled around “what does it mean to execute software” — what formats, types, etc of software will ESAP support? How does that relate to metadata, etc?
Our best attempts to date have focused on Binder. This provides an environment which can do more than simply execute Jupyter notebooks, since it also provides a terminal with command line interface, etc.
We should write up a concrete proposal for what this means, likely as part of the ESAP vision, and then have it agreed by WP5 stakeholders and discuss it with OSSR.
