[IPOL discuss] publishing the LaTeX source of IPOL articles?

[Nicolas Limare]

Dear all,

What do you think about publishing the LaTeX source of IPOL articles
on ipol.im, for example as supplementary materials? I see a few
benefits:
* these are good examples to write new IPOL articles
* recoding comnplex math formula in LaTeX takes time and is not
  interesting, copy-paste is faster
* same for bibliographix references
* accessing the original image files to re-use for comparison is
  better than trying to extract them from the PDF

Moreover, some people in a conference recently attended by Carlo say
they want to be able to regenerate article files in other formats than
the PDF provided by the publisher.

For the intellectual rights, a LaTeX source is a program, we could
suggest a template to the authors to mention their copyright and a
license.

What do you think about this idea?
