I compel all of us fine folks in this forum to abstain from unproductive debates and discussions during this hackathon week. No exegesis, no contemplation of what things could or should be, no idle thinking. This is the time to act. "If you see something, do something."

Looking forward to everyone's great ideas and work artifacts. Drawing blanks? No problem - there's a bunch of pull requests to review!


Thanks!

Andrei

I'll focus on my outstanding PRs first, but I have a bunch of ideas on the backburner that I hope I can get to during the next few days.

I'll do some work on the `Needs review` tag.

Shameless self-promotion, but we're working on `Unique` and it would be nice if a new and improved `Unique` could make its debut in 2.068. To that end I request review for this PR[1] from interested parties :)

Something really easy to do even for a beginner is to submit documentation PRs. That is, assuming you have your environment set up to build the website.

Everywhere I look in Phobos, I find:

1. unnecessary calls to new

2. functions that should accept ranges and return ranges, instead of doing storage allocation

Here's a list of PR's I've submitted to address a few of them:

  https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pulls/WalterBright

to show what I mean.

Made a pass over all unlabelled PRs:

There's been a bit of a dearth of reviewers in the last couple of weeks. All help is appreciated.
