alvis I will be unavailable for #ps today. Please see my report below: 17:50
What I did:
* Merged 'ayardley/parrot_github_release' branch (but must await new release for production run) 17:51
What I will (or plan, in the short-term, to) do:
* Complete testing of 'parrotbug' against the parrotbug-service
* Update main 'README' to 'README.pod'
* Revise upd_copyrights.pl to conform with the comments set out in issue 17:52
#719
* Complete wgrep.winxed options (e.g., '-n' add number lines to output)
* Complete Chapter 01 of vmspec
* Start Chapter 02 of vmspec
* Write "Articles" in Winxed (rather than PIR)
* Write "Babysteps" in Winxed (rather than PIR)
EOR

kid51 Is the meeting still supposed to start at 1930? 19:35
cotto yup
also, hi 19:36
NotFound Hola
kid51 looks for people who can write some documentation of C function in src/platform/generic/dl.c and src/pmc/stringbuilder.pmc, so that 2 codingstd tests once again pass 19:37
cotto doesn't sound too hairy
kid51 just run 'make nocritic_codetest' and you'll see what has to be done 19:38
NotFound Function level doc in platform/xxx/*.c is highly redundant
kid51 Well, I could not locate suitable equivalents there. 3 functions added in an old patch that dukeleto recently applied -- but they lacked docs 19:40
NotFound Maybe we must just put "See generic..." in most of them.
kid51 stringbuilder.pmc failure is more recent; some new pmc added in last week
NotFound I'll look at it.
kid51 Thanks. 19:41
cotto any questions or issues the week? 19:45
Coke Normal kvetchy question about elections. 19:52
sounds like debian will (eventually) be happy. 19:53
glad to see (any) progress on m0
cotto same here
Coke how many mentors do we have potentially? I know me, whiteknight, kid51, and dukeleto. (though 2 of them are admins and I'm not sure if they're mentoring also) 19:54
(for GSOC)
19:56 benabik joined
kid51 I don't really have the technical expertise in any of the subject areas I reviewed, so I would probably be better as a backup admin 19:59
... which I have been in the past and which has meant that I really had to do ... nothing ;-)
cotto There are some proposals I'd be down with mentoring
kid51 I will try to re-review the proposals and score them if I get a chance 20:00
benabik I'd offer to mentor, but I don't think that's technically possible. 20:01
cotto benabik: even if you could, that'd be quite a time commitment 20:02
do we have slot allocations yet? 20:04
NotFound I'm short of free time, jusr can help occassionally with winxed related tasks.
Coke benabik: students may not mentor. 20:05
cotto so, that's settlex 20:07
*settled
Coke cotto: not yet
lucian is willing to mentor python/js/java projects 20:12
so from the proposals, i'd be willing to mentor the Jaesop one if whiteknight doesn't want it 20:13
cotto istr that he's interested in multiple projects 20:14
We'll work it out so that everyone who's mentoring is mentoring something of interest to that person. 20:15
lucian thb i don't really have the skills to mentor anything else, i'm not even sure i'm qualified for this :)
NotFound lucian: I can help with that 20:16
lucian NotFound: as it was during my GSoC, that would be helpful :) 20:17
cotto the bug idea seems to be that we need to make sure GSoC get some love, especially in the form of mentors 20:28
*big idea
Coke: the election needs to happen, so thanks for bringing that up. I'm not sure what our previous lack of elections implies as far as what PaFo will need to do. 20:30
Coke++
PerlJam does PaFo not have many GSoC mentors? 20:37
Coke at least 4 ish. 20:38
cotto We need to get mentors and projects matched up 20:42
any other questions? 20:54
Coke is rakudo happy with parrot? 21:02
PerlJam Coke: better ask pmichaud and jnthn that question :) 21:04
Coke don't need an answer right now.
cotto Let's call it a wrap. 21:21
benabik BLT! 21:22
