Therefore, to avoid ambiguities, we list the definitions hat we use in this document:\\

\textbf{Research software:}\\

Foundational algorithms, the software itself, as well as scripts and computational workflows that were created

during the research process or for a research purpose, across all domains of research.

This definition is broader than in~\autocite{FAIR4RS} and is the outcome of a recent discussion in~\autocite{Gruenpeter2021}.\\

\textbf{Research software engineers:}\\

People who create or improve research software and/or the structures that it interacts within the computational ecosystem of research domains.
