May 02, 2015 The hackathon week roundup | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
The hackathon week (Apr 25 - May 1) saw 70 PRs created (compare to 68 created Apr 18 through 24). Not much difference in terms of new work, but the PRs closed during the same two periods (75 vs 53) reflect a good bump in the reviewing activity. Another related data point: 143 PRs were updated (e.g. revised, commented on etc) during the hackathon week vs. 78 the week before that. Great work, thanks! Some good stuff has been happening, some manifestly hackathon-related, some perhaps just coincidental. * Article "Using D Templates for Gamedev": https://marfisc.wordpress.com/2015/04/29/using-d-templates-for-gamedev. Did well on reddit (http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/34ah1q/using_d_templates_for_game_development/) although it's been classified as spam for a few hours. * Proof of concept: https://github.com/JinShil/stm32f42_discovery_demo/blob/master/README.md * Tutorial: http://d.readthedocs.org (btw should we link that from the homepage?) * WIP: tracing memory allocations, see http://forum.dlang.org/thread/mhhmnr$2euj$1@digitalmars.com, https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/4621, https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/4625, https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime/pull/1246. * The "if(arr)" warning has been undone. This has caused a fair amount of stir. We believe we made the right call, though sadly it's impossible to make everyone happy. Please bear with us. * WIP: Unique https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/3225 and RefCounted (can't seem to find the PR - where is it?) * WIP: allocators http://forum.dlang.org/thread/mi1qph$cgr$1@digitalmars.com All in all, a great week! Congratulations to all participants, and let's do it again sometime. I'm looking into ways to make this more interactive (google hangouts?) and more fun (contests? prizes? etc). Chime in! Again - this is terrific. Many thanks to everyone who participated! Andrei |

May I transfer the repositories (both GitHub and RTD) to the D-Programming-Language community?

That'd be a fine idea. Thoughts from Walter, Martin et al? -- Andrei

I think it's a great idea. It'd have to be Boost licensed, though.

Shouldn't it be creative commons because it is more a creative work aka documentation?

My idea:
1. Members of the D leadership/committers form a working group.
2. The working group creates of list of bugs they are willing to work on.
3. Hackathon is announced. To motivate participants, the working group agrees to fix a bug of the winner's choosing.
4. After the hackathon, the working group subjectively chooses a winner from the participants.
5. The winner discloses which bug they would like fixed, and the qualified members of the working group agrees to fix it for the next release.
7. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Everything else is boost licensed. Consistency.

I have requested repository transfer to Andrei because only members of a organisation can transfer.
Andrey or/and someone from D core team, please send me your user names at readthedocs.org.
