Based upon the conversations I had with everyone at the reproducible builds summit in Hamburg, I sketched out some rough ideas about how a potential paper might go. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9jHgwYYz72TdlFTOHJWVmprSEU/view?usp=sharing
I would think that emphasizing some of the community's experiences with using reproducible builds to find other bugs will be the most compelling stance to take. I also (over?)state the philosophy of fixing reproducibility bugs upstream as an effective way to find more of these issues. Feedback is certainly welcome. At this point feedback about the very broad ideas and assertions is more useful than noting I misunderstood or misstated a specific point. I'm new to this community, so I apologize in advance for any errors. I am happy to help the community to flesh this out and gather results for the submission. If you are interested in contributing, please chime in! Thanks, Justin
