docs(readme): fix stale citation; note PostgreSQL as a peer backend#232
Merged
Conversation
- Citation pointed at a non-existent arXiv id (2303.00102/2023); replace with the current canonical DataJoint 2.0 manuscript (arXiv:2602.16585, 2026) per about/citation.md, incl. RRID. - README listed only MySQL; the compose stack now runs PostgreSQL (postgres:15, MODE=EXECUTE_PG) and PostgreSQL is a peer backend — note it in the Docker environment and native prerequisites.

Two stale items in the top-level
README.md:src/about/citation.md(the "simpler relational data model" paper is arXiv:1807.11104/2018). Replaced with the current canonical DataJoint 2.0 citation the docs designate for 2.0 / the Relational Workflow Model: Yatsenko D, Nguyen TT. DataJoint 2.0: A Computational Substrate for Agentic Scientific Workflows. arXiv:2602.16585 (2026), incl.RRID:SCR_014543— matchingabout/citation.md.postgres:15service withMODE=EXECUTE_PG, and PostgreSQL is a peer backend — but the README said "includes MySQL, MinIO" and listed only "MySQL 8.0+". Now notes MySQL and PostgreSQL in the Docker environment and native prerequisites.Everything else referenced in the README was verified current (
pip_requirements.txt,scripts/check_notebook_versions.py, the compose MODE options, Diátaxis links).Docs-only, top-level README.
