| alvis | I will be unavailable for #ps today. Below is my report. | 18:09 | |
| What I did: | |||
| * Approximately, one week, perhaps two, depending on various constraints, away from completeing an alternative, conforming C implemenatation of m0. The major milestone of this implementation is for it to pass the very same tests of the present C implementation of m0. | |||
| Note: This new implementation accomplishes several specification objectives and two ROADMAP goals: | 18:10 | ||
| (1) uses fix-width C99 types; and | |||
| (2) employs "nice malloc/calloc wrappers. | |||
| It also uses the "Boehm-Demers-Weiser conservative garbage | |||
| collector" with which to implement the 'gc_alloc' opcode. (Use of | |||
| the boehm collector is not, necessarily, the optimal solution; it | |||
| does, however, allow for something against which to test the | |||
| implementation and, fwiw, it is rather fast.) | |||
| The most immediate, subsequent milestones are, | |||
| (1) inclussion of mmap and offsets into m0b files -- a ROADMAP goal; and | |||
| (2) the inclusion of SHA256 checksum verification -- a ROADMAP goal | |||
| Note: I have also been reviewing bytecode verifcation processes. I plan | |||
| to work-in some minimal, bytecode verification processes while | |||
| working on the inclusion of mmap. (These will be little more than a | |||
| start on the road of bytecode verification.) | |||
| * Reviewed/reviewing 'docs/pdds/draft/pdd13_bytecode.pod' and 'docs/parrotbyte.pod'. (I am *very*, *very* uncertain/unclear/confused about these documents.) | 18:11 | ||
| * Added myself as release manager for 'Sep 18, 2012 - 4.8.0' release (so there'd be no gaps between release managers). | |||
| * Continued work on 'ayardley/documentation_revisions' | |||
| * Almost complete with fixes to 'ayardley/fixup_parrot_github_release' | |||
| EOR (And I apologize for the poor formatting above, if any.) | |||

| cotto | howdy | 19:31 | |
| brrt | hello | 19:32 | |
| benabik | hi | 19:34 | |
| NotFound | Hola | 19:39 | |
| cotto | How's the week been? | 19:40 | |
| benabik | hectic, but that's not really related to parrot... | 19:41 | |
| cotto | same here, perhaps to a slightly lesser extent | 19:43 | |
| benabik | Talkative bunch here. | 20:00 | |
| rurban | Sorry, I'm also late | 20:21 | |
| I reviewed the branches to be merged, io_cleanup1 and threads. | |||
| io_cleanup1: whiteknight wanted to discuss some problems with moritz on rakudo, otherwise it looks fine. | 20:22 | ||
| threads looks also fine | |||
| Coke | rurban: you're mostly on cygwin, ja? | 20:25 | |
| rurban | Coke: Nope, debian testing. cygwin just because there are the most errors | 20:36 | |
| I tested linux, solaris and cygwin | |||
| with gcc and clang -faddress-sanitizer | |||
| benabik | Sanitize all the addresses! | 20:44 | |
