One feature we may want to implement is a tab containing data package level metadata (e.g. title, abstract, methods, etc.) to inform use.

IMO this is a duplication of content that is provided in the landing page of a data package.

It just occurred to me that it'd be easy and potentially helpful to print out the "summary_metadata" and "attribute_metadata" tables, if present in a metajam output list structure. These can live in the report with all the other neato tables.

I like that idea @atn38 (of adding them to the report) because I think we already have a lot of tabs and I think adding more might get confusing and will also make the layout look funny on smaller screens.

IMO metadata should be made clearly and quickly available in a tab rather than being squirreled away in the report, which often takes time to produce.

The "metadata" tab could replace the "About" tab, which contains project level information that is better placed in the project level README or package level DESCRIPTION files.

+1 to your points @clnsmth. I'll put in my to-do list to at least include the parent DOI in the report, since once downloaded the reports lose their context.

Agreed @atn38, including the DOI in the report would be good.

I'm still of the opinion that including metadata within the UI is a duplication of content provided by the data package web landing page.
