A CITATION.txt with a BibTeX (ideally a DOI) would be much appreciated :)

This has been requested a few times, PRs to add that are welcome.

It has to be done by repo admins. I looked into it and got stuck in support limbo for the citation service, because the admins for the Mozilla org didn't want to enable the app globally, so the webhook had to be added manually and the repo enabled by support.

Another idea would be to write up a technical report/paper and post it to ArXiv or somewhere.

Write it, I'll gladly put my name as first author on it. :D

Is there a way to energize the repo admins to lift this onto master? An official BibTeX would be nice

What is blocking here is getting a DOI I think, @reuben can correct me. Maybe we should just go with bibtex to cite with a \url{}

Yes, Zenodo would be a solution to give us a DOI.

As per the previous mention, Zenodo is the preferred way according to the Github Guidelines. The DOI would, however, need to reference a specific release.

Assign this to me, I'm familiar with DoI and BibTex :D

As of now, the problem in not bibtex/doi, it's admin-level github mozilla org.
