lue huf: interesting. Never would have thought of needing to do that. 00:13
huf it's so frequent a question on #perl that there are multiple modules to make it nicer :)
lue (although I fear I don't quite get what use lib is trying to do. /me researches use lib) 00:14
huf BEGIN { push @INC, '....' }
lue Ah. I'm getting the feeling a lot of my confusion stems from me not having ever needed to do this. 00:15
huf :) 00:16
lue Huh. running perl6 -e "require 'lib/lib.pm6';" in the base of rakudo's repo generates a "could not find" error. 00:20
Which, IIRC, is wrong. 00:25

japhb phenny, tell TimToady I've been tanking on S11 and the big discussion we had this afternoon. I'm beginning to wonder if the 'use' statement isn't the right place to be specifying auth and ver, or at least not the only place to make that choice. 03:03
phenny japhb: I'll pass that on when TimToady is around.
japhb phenny, tell TimToady I understand the desire to say "I need this API version from my dependency." But it's the wrong place to specify it when you want to bundle, i.e. specify "These packages of software have been tested together", where you want to make a more project-global choice 03:05
phenny japhb: I'll pass that on when TimToady is around.
japhb phenny, tell TimToady I'll continue to tank on it, but input from your highly non-linear thinking patterns desired. 03:06
phenny japhb: I'll pass that on when TimToady is around.

cyclick2 is perl6 better then perl5 at character encodings? 03:09
sorear yes in some regards 03:11
character strings and byte strings are no longer interchangable, so it's no longer possible to accidentally not handle encoding or handle it twice
03:12 noggle left
sorear however the encoding menu is much smaller, no current p6 impl supports EBCDIC 03:12

cyclick2 is it possible to say all strings are utf-8 for example, no matter which module your are using? 03:15

japhb cyclick2, character strings by default follow Unicode semantics in Perl 6. 03:17
sorear cyclick2: All strings can contain any Unicode character.
cyclick2: The encoding is an implementation detail - Niecza uses UTF-16

evgi hi 13:38
I have a question
When will Perl 6 be released? 13:39
moritz evgi: there are two Perl 6 compilers that already have monthly releases 13:41
so in some sense, it already has been released
[Coke] and a distribution built on top of one of them that has regularly (but not necessarily monthly) releases.
Is there a particular feature you're looking for?
moritz though we haven't snapshotted a version of the spec yet and called it "Perl 6.0.0"
[Coke] *regular, whoops. 13:42
evgi I am working currently with Perl 5 13:43
I have a lot of code there
How stable Perl 6?
moritz first of all if you have lots of Perl 5 code, it doesn't make any sense to port it to Perl 6
evgi How I can convert all my code (Perl 5) to Perl 6?
moritz there's no automagic conversion, and Perl 5 won't go away 13:44
how stable is not? not as stable as Perl 5, by far
evgi but Perl 6 has a many updates/improvments
like obkects and many more
moritz yes 13:45
evgi objects
moritz but updating your code from Perl 5 to Perl 6 would be nearly complete rewrite
evgi ohh

Moukeddar Hello \o/ #perl6 18:29
PerlJam o/
Moukeddar how you doin' ? 18:30
PerlJam a bit of a headache and a little hungry, but otherwise fine :) 18:32
Moukeddar get well soon, i have the cold 18:34
PerlJam munches on some almonds.
Moukeddar can i ask something, it's not really related to perl6 18:36
FROGGS well, can't hurt to ask 18:39
Moukeddar we're studying HTML and CSS, it's fun, but all i think is : it's for designers,and with all what's popping in the web, what you learn today seems obsolete tomorrow, how to deal with it ? 18:41
FROGGS well, I need to know HTML and CSS for example, cant say that it is obsolete, and I'm not a designer 18:42
masak Moukeddar: learn principles that won't be obsolete tomorrow.
PerlJam Moukeddar: the same way you deal with any technical knowledge ... continue to learn new things every day :-) 18:43
Moukeddar: but like masak says, the principles are the important thing
masak yes, I'm afraid constant learning is inevitable. 18:44
but there are nice underlying currents to all the trivial details of web dev.
like "why does IE6 suck att DOM node removal?" -- "because it uses a refcounting GC and its devs didn't realize that was a problem until the web started using Ajax".
FROGGS btw, knowing HTML and CSS will help you writing a template engine for example, you always can reuse knowledge 18:45
masak very true.
and a template engine is just a compiler :)
Moukeddar the one thing that frightens me, i'm not exactly a web dev guy, and the whole world seems to be moving faster than ever toward that
PerlJam *everything* is a compiler at some level ;)

PerlJam moritz: you should have left it as an unintentional pun ;)
moritz PerlJam: :-)
huf that i shouldnt be put in a UI-related position anyway :D
masak likes to process heterogenous data 18:50
Moukeddar lol, i'm not a complete ignorant in HTML or CSS, i know some basics, and i can build a good ui when i have to,not a website, but this whole HTML/CSS, and HTML5/CSS3 is just insane
FROGGS cant really describe what he likes
huf Moukeddar: yep. 18:51
i agree 100%
FROGGS CSS is an improvement to HTML, a great one
huf but i also see why it's spinning so fast
0deploy apps used to be a dream
now they're commonplace with webapps
PerlJam never did grok CSS on a deep level.

PerlJam Mainly I can do simple components (with CSS), but when it comes to putting them together, I tend to fail (it never looks like I expect or want)
Moukeddar huf, wish there was some script like that
huf PerlJam: oh, that.
masak PerlJam: no-one knows how to do that :P
huf that's because you dont know about a million weird rules that are nowhere documented
except in the source code of each render engine 18:54
Moukeddar lol
PerlJam masak: Eric Meyer does! :)
huf and are of course weirdly incompatible AND somewhat illogical
masak hugs Eric Meyer
huf you could say, historical
masak huf: I thought CSS had gotten lots better at those things. 18:55
what with ACID2 and all those tests.
Moukeddar seems like we got caught in the cross-fire inside a browser war
masak several.
the fact that JavaScript and CSS aren't better integrated than they are is a crying shame.

Woodi here something about possible versioning: pastebin.com/e3CqAMQs 19:20
[Coke] SFW perl tattoo? i.chzbgr.com/completestore/12/11/2...hU7LQ2.jpg 19:21
masak one thing I've been thinking of: would it be possible to build a small simulation of module handling, including auth and ver and stuff. 19:22
just outside of either of the compilers.
sometimes it helps to prototype stuff outside of the compilers, just to make sure they're sane.
sorear good * #perl6
masak sorear! \o/ 19:23
PerlJam masak: until we get some implementations going *somehow* I fear we'll just have lots of guesses and about the pros and cons of various approaches and very little actual experiences. 19:27
masak that's what I mean. 19:28
a prototype might be the easiest way to gain some insight in how it'd all hang together.
just the simplest thing that could possible emulate module authing and versioning, and where everything is to be stored. 19:29
with proper tests to back it up and make sure it does what we want.
[Coke] (always learning) I had an old boss who told me once you stop learning, you're dead. (and that's from when I stocked shelves at the grocery store!)
PerlJam masak: I guess it would help if we had an API for the types of operations we'd expect of "module handling" with auths + versions 19:31
masak yeah. 19:32
japhb As I tanked on this yesterday evening, it struck me that there are a lot of *conflicting* ways that people want to use versioned modules/packages 19:34
I sketched out a few different designs, but each has drawbacks -- not least of which is that the design that handled the most use cases was also the most complex. 19:35
19:35 Moukeddar left
sorear worst part of being a language implementor: conflicting user demands 19:36
japhb Because you don't get too far before you are taking about managed symlink farms (and not just the 'Any' stuff I was talking about yesterday, more like alternatives + more)
and other such complexities.
Lord help you if you want people to make S11 happy and FHS happy at the same time 19:37
pmurias: I'm not talking about not declaring dependencies. Just that declaring dependencies per comp unit seems inappropriately granular. 19:38
PerlJam japhb: I just want some sufficiently advanced technology so that I don't have to think so much about FS issues :)
sorear japhb: THANK YOU I HAVE BEEN SAYING THAT FOR YEARS
japhb PerlJam: I think we can get close to that sufficiently advanced technology. But my current designs unfortunately trade complexity, fragility, and limited expandability to get there. 19:39
Which sucks.
sorear, heh. :-) 19:40
sorear japhb: at this point I'm more than happy to let you think about this instead of me :p
Woodi btw. 'auth' is branch like in git too.
japhb sorear, *exaggerated sigh* Oh good, I've proven myself just competent enough to get assigned the task. ;-) 19:41
Woodi maybe we should think about modules as sub-languages, which are lexically scoped
japhb Woodi, one of the big discussion items yesterday was that modules do not exist in a lexical vacuum in the real world. They have other modules, share directories, scripts, and so on, that bundle them into a package. 19:43
masak yes, 'package' (or 'project', or whatever) is an under-specified abstraction level. 19:44
CPAN calls it "distribution", no?
japhb ya
Woodi but { use Module; code; code; } code; # is a way of seeing packages/distributions usage 19:47

Woodi maybe we just trying to avoiding work ? :) if we have versions then we must use defaults (newer or official-by-marked-somewhere) as defaults and specify exceptions or always/everywhere use version numbers
sorear note, masak, that Perl 6 actually insists on bad grammar. :p
Woodi same with auth, just next letter to permutate
japhb Woodi, I'm having a hard time trying to understand what you are saying that is different from S11. 19:58
19:59 Chillance joined
Woodi I am saying that adding versions to modules make system little more complicated and we looking for magic recipe. same with auth - next bit of complication. 19:59
if we keep that additional bits we must manage them
one level of abstraction can help, eg. sets 20:00
japhb Woodi: Yes, I think we understand that, but I think you are underestimating the complexity, because there are a lot of use cases that want different things to be easy.
Woodi very possible
japhb In the waterbed theory of complexity, there are a lot of people pushing down on different spots on the bed.
Building a fair amount of pressure. :-)
20:00 am0c left
diakopter heavy waterbed is underwater 20:02
Woodi I think so far we wanted to resolve everything via directory hierarchies. some middle-something is needed
sorear japhb: what does springing a leak and/or bursting correspond to in the analogy?
PerlJam Enumerating the use-cases would at least allow us to group the compatible ones or segregate the incompatible ones. 20:03
japhb Woodi, I think we pretty much agreed that directory hierarchies are not enough, that there needs to be some form of database (in the general sense) that disambiguates -- if nothing else, literally because filesystems suck compared to Perl 6. 20:04
PerlJam japhb: aye
japhb sorear, Someone running away screaming things about Elder Gods?
Woodi japhb: ok. so for me way to prototype is open :)
japhb PerlJam, I had sketched various use cases last evening, but nothing terribly coherent. Hmmm, perhaps I should just post what I have. 20:06
Woodi, prototype away. But I'd encourage you to post your design for us to look at before you spend a bunch of time on something that won't work for what we need.
japhb is very happy he didn't just go and implement his initial design.
Woodi japhb: I think writting all requirements on web page is needed. you constantly scarry me and I now don't know what I don't know :) 20:08
japhb gist.github.com/4171575 20:10
^ my notes from yesterday evening
Woodi, It's always good to try to convert unknown unknowns into known unknowns. ;-)
Woodi wow :) I did not see this yet
20:14 kurahaupo joined
Woodi for me 'use Module;' just uses module from fs, everybody happy. now: how bin/* thingies make problems ? 'distributions' are installable things and bin/* components do not realy belong to "module-version-auth" problem, IMO... 20:19
they can installable outside of modules root 20:20
japhb What if program A wants to run() a script from distribution B? How does it specify which version of that script to run?
Woodi scripts do not have versions
japhb o.O 20:21
Woodi distros have
japhb OK, so how do you find the script that matches a certain version of a distro?
Woodi installation location for bin/ and share/ need to be known 20:22
I would like to keep things separate
japhb Yes, so: how many different scripts of the same name are you planning to store in that bin? ;-) 20:23
Woodi ls /opt/lib/graft/ 20:25
graft-2.4 log parrot-4.6.0 parrot-4.9.0 star-2012.08 star-2012.09 star-2012.10
japhb Ah, I see. What about auth? Just another hyphenated section of the name?
Woodi for modules in modules repo yes: root/Foo/Bar.pm.0.98.auth 20:28
japhb scripts and share directories also need to obey both auth and ver.
And we still want to have a PATH that doesn't explode a la rubygems
20:30 LordVorp joined
Woodi pastebin.com/zqDH7DhD :) 20:31
we exploit fs or write intermediate vitual fs or db...
kurahaupo Woodi: the point of "bin" directories is that the files therein can be invoked without the full pathname, because the directories are in the user's $PATH setting. If versions are that important, then keep the file in the package's "lib" or "libexec" directory with a version suffix in the name. 20:33
japhb trundles off to retrieve food ... 20:35
kurahaupo Generally, if version N of script S in version N' of package X must invoke version M of script Q in version M' of package Y, then version N' package X should specify the a dependency on version M' of package Y. 20:36
Woodi I refuse to parse... :) 20:37
kurahaupo Short version: it becomes a package versioning problem, as a proxy for the script versioning problem
Woodi kurahaupo: for me user can just switch used distribution... but probably we talking about few distros used at once... 20:39
maybe just cloning like in git resolve this. user should build his working env. and for others he should deplay things... 20:41

Woodi I think deriving personal packages should be easy: install two packages, derive personal from it, add things from second 21:01
