Several stakeholder perspectives are discussed and supported by (inter)national examples, including that of RSEs within RSE groups, RSEs embedded in research groups, Researchers in need of RSE resources, organizational management and that of funders.

We will draw parallels to research data here, because both, data and software, play a fundamental role in all of the research. Over the past decades, Research Data Management (RDM) has evolved into a topic of national interest with NFDI consortia for all disciplines and a research data law.

Federal state RDM initiatives\footnote{e.g. HeFDI, SaxFDM, FDM-BBB, FDM-NDS and others} accelerate the topic further providing regional training, networking and other supporting services.

Many research organisations have established central RDM groups that support research projects in all aspects from grant proposals to hands-on support and maintaining Data Management Plans (DMP).

Funding agencies acknowledge the importance of research data and started to make RDM mandatory in research projects.

Due to the similar nature of both, data and software, and their importance in today's digital research, it is reasonable to expect a similar trajectory in the development of research software as a topic.

Another development taking place worldwide is the encouragement of authors to submit both, data and software, for peer review. As an example, the journal "Nature" initiated such a policy\footnote{\url{https://www.nature.com/nature-portfolio/editorial-policies/reporting-standards}} in 2018~\autocite{Nature2018}.

RSE groups are able to offer researchers consulting tailored to their specific needs on how to implement and document those policies.

Another parallel to RDM initiatives on federal state level (for a list, see~\footnote{\url{https://forschungsdaten.info/fdm-im-deutschsprachigen-raum/deutschland/}}) are currently emerging ideas and grant proposals to establish similar structures at the same level for research software.

The global FAIR movement originated from RDM and widened their focus to include research software.

However, it also has become clear in that process that software is not “just another type of data" and, e.g., the FAIR principles are not sufficient for software.

The FAIR principles for Research Software (FAIR4RS)~\autocite{ChueHong2022} have been adopted worldwide~\autocite{Barker2024}, including the German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and the German Research Foundation (DFG).
