weekly Perl 6 status meetings with phase transitions: Tue 19:00 UTC | IR clogs at irclog.perlgeek.de/phasers/today
Set by moderator on 26 August 2011.
sorear DID: 04:37
- Restored .NET support by changing Mono.Posix to late binding through reflection
- Added P6/CLR interop code. Interface is still very likely to change, watched in semi-horror as TimToady added an example to RC 04:38
WILL DO:
- possibly grapheme ropes, but there's a LOT of yak shaving involved and I'm looking for a better approach 04:39
- starting to have some better ideas about file format version checking and BEGINish issues, nothing too concrete yet 04:40
BLOCKERS:
- tuits mostly
EOR
note, my schedule seems unlikely to change much more. good #phasers candidate times would be Fri 1900, Mon/Wed/Fri 1730 or 2230 04:43
09:38 Util joined 13:14 colomon joined
moritz might misss tonight's #phasers 15:40
fwiw from sorear++'s possible #phasers times, Mon/Wed 1730 UTC would seem probably OK for me 15:41
cotto_work would like any of sorear's suggestions 16:05
16:30 eternaleye joined 18:25 masak joined
masak pre-report: been coding Perl 6 -- feels great. even patches nom a bit. not enough. been looking over my (still local) macros branch. not enough. blogged. not enough. plan: more of everything. blockers: everything else. $<eor>; 18:27
jnthn pre-report: 18:59
Over the last week... 19:00
* Cleaned up EXPORTHOW handling, and enabled nested settings
* Added a basic SAFE.setting, which others filled out
* Made my T $foo; work when T is a type variable
* Improved errors when you try and use types inappropriately (like trying to inherit from something that's not a class and doesn't know how to be like one)
* Made it possible to "inherit" from roles (actually from the pun)
* Corrected role punning; we now cache the pun
* Fixed a closure handling bug
* Filled out the holes in role type checking
* Enabled definition of multiple roles with the same shortname
* Fixed bug with parametric roles and build closures
* Got the "Glass of Beer" type syntax working again
* Implemented the "is default" trait for routines
* Fixed a proto auto-generation bug
* Fixed a bug in nextsame/nextwith
* Blogged about my plan for the next couple of months
Blockers
* Having to deal with the Parrot stuff that happened over the last week, which was both distracting and demotivational :-/
Plans
* Fix lots of tests so nom can be awsomer
* Optimizer or BS or CLR backend hacking, as takes my fancy
EOR
masak o/ 19:03
jnthn++ # Glass of Beer type syntax
jnthn o/ 19:04
masak so... is there a #phasers meeting today? :) 19:05
jnthn I'm not sure. :)
I thought so but...
...it seems kinda quiet. :) 19:06
masak jnthn: if it's just the two of us, we might's'well privmsg. :P
jnthn Yeah, then we can talk about our plan to take over the world!
er, wait, I mean...nothing.
masak right. 19:07
PerlJam is here
sorta
colomon o/ 19:09
Util is here, but has nothing to report.
colomon finally dug into his $work just in time to miss the start of #phasers. Nothing to report other than niecza trig schemings. 19:10
jnthn guess that this will be the last #phasers in this time slot, since from here we move so sorear++ can attend 19:12
tadzik I have a one-liner again :0
:)
masak oh, and I have this to report, too. I'm now a Niecza end user. expect me to bug sorear regularly from now on ;) 19:13
PerlJam What's the new #phasers time slot?
tadzik done: passed my last exam; plan: more vacationing and some perl6; eor
masak PerlJam: you're on it.
PerlJam is confused. 19:14
masak oh! I should've said "there is no new time slot, yet"
PerlJam sorear mentioned earlier that M/W/F are good days for him . today is not M,W, or F
jnthn M,W are preferable for me. 19:15
tadzik I've seen no decision on the new slot
PerlJam Did someone setup a doodle?
jnthn PerlJam: not afaik 19:16
19:28 mberends joined
mberends waves from a hotel in Dublin 19:29
colomon oooo, Dublin!
mberends can't stay long, this #phasers is encroaching on valuable drinking (and eating) time ;) 19:31
jnthn mberends: It's very quiet today :) 19:32
mberends: Feel free to report anything you have :)
mberends ok
masak yeah, this #phasers sucks :)
mberends I want to do Guinness.slurp; 19:33
PerlJam someone could propose a new day/time for #phasers
I propose Wednesdays at 1730
:-)
masak UTC?
TimToady maybe tomorrow's #phasers won't suck so much
PerlJam masak: of course
mberends most days/times are equally fine with me. 19:34
report: did: extended sorear's HelloWorld Gtk app into a slightly fragile Calc app. plan: more Niecza Gtk experiments, such as a little plain text editor and an xclock, and more Niecza guts documentation. .EOR 19:36
colomon mberends++ 19:37
mberends I'm so glad Niecza supports callbacks. There will be many uses for that, and the experience will surely help crystallize the specs. 19:39
I tried to get MenuBar, Menu and MenuItem to work but failed so far. I'll redo the work in a golfed example for sorear to look at. 19:40
tadzik I'd rather have #phasers a bit later 19:42
oh wait, UTC? I never know this, are we on 19 UTC now?
mberends tadzik: yes
masak tadzik: 19:42.
tadzik hmm, ok
then even 1730 is fine for me, I suppose 19:43
PerlJam so far no veto :)
where's pmichaud? 19:44
jnthn 1730 would work for me too 19:45
19:47 pmichaud joined
[Coke] there is an appointment in comp.lang.parrot calendar if you want, I can update it. 19:47
pmichaud good afternoon, #phasers
PerlJam pmichaud: I proposed Wednesdays @ 1730 UTC for future #phasers so that sorear can attend. What say you?
[Coke] (or delete it)
pmichaud 1730UTC == 1230 CDT == should be fine for me
PerlJam masak: you didn't say yea or nay for Wed @1730 19:50
masak PerlJam: yea yea. :)
mberends neighs yea
Util Wed @1730UTC works for me, as long as it is under 1.5 hours, then conflict every week. 19:51
So, Yea
mberends -> pub
PerlJam so ... meet tomorrow @ 1730 or wait a week? 19:52
Util Wait a week
pmichaud either way works for me
PerlJam (I'm for waiting myself) 19:54
(besides it's not like I participate often :)
jnthn can wai 19:57
t
cotto_work topic update? 20:02
pmichaud 20:03 -!- #phasers You're not channel operator 20:04
:-(
cotto_work Is anyone? 20:05
Util Ack! /NAMES says no ops in channel
20:13 Tene joined 20:35 masak left
TimToady moritz: ^^ you seem to have set the topic last time, so presumably you can set it again :) 23:50
