The CITATION file is using BibTex format that lacks metadata for citing software. It needs to include an example of BibLaTex file which has additional software specific metadata. I had tried importing the BibTex into a citation manager like Zotero, and it indicated that the citation was a document. However, using BibLaTex will indicate that it is of the type software. This facilitates citation. Also, the authors section of the example is incorrectly formatted. The author names should be "{firstname} {lastname}" and not "{lastname}, {firstname}". The version information should also be included in a note for the BibTex format. Finally, it needs an example of how to create a BibLaTex format in the CITATION.
I corrected the issue and will submit a pull request for it shortly.
