I need to cite the software not your paper about the software.
It is unscientific to do it like that. And somebody could say I just
want to say "thank you" in the way to increase your ImpfactFactor.

If there is no DOI I will just name the main website an the release
identifier (version number).

Exactly that would be useful and what DOIs are for - especially for a
scientific software like BioPython.
