Issue details
During the research software templates session in RSECon24, there were several comments in the mentimeter which I have interpreted as related to the different profiles which are available through the template.
At the moment, 3 profiles are available. We should revise these profiles to make sure:
- User profiles cover the different needs of various groups (potentially) using the template.
- It is clear to users that they can use the template for different profiles.
- It is clear to users when to use which profile.
Mentimeter comments were along the lines: Templates often too detailed. A minimal version would be good; A very small one for mini projects; Should support customisation. Different groups have subtly different needs; Consensus as to what practices should be included can be challenging; Conformance levels - maybe matched to project maturity; There should be well-defined extension points
