I think that David mentioned in IRC that citations of webpages
weren't really looked on well in his journal.One of the reasons that web citations are looked upon poorly is their transient nature. There are a number of projects which have been set up to try to address this. One such project is http://webcitation.org Another problem is their lack of peer review. I've been considering if it would be appropriate to submit something to http://www.jstatsoft.org They seem to be a reasonably reputable journal, and apparently accept "white papers".
