sorear PRE REPORT: 07:11
DID
* not much last week - very few tuits 07:12
* m// returns matches now
* starting to draw Niecza and STD closer together. is endsym<> hack imported from viv (actually a slightly nicer version)
* accepted test patches from moritz++ and diakopter++ 07:13
* many other small STD tweaks; using 'old' EXPR again 07:14
the big stuff:
* RELEASED v3 to little fanfare. Announcement email seems to have been eaten by p6a
* &eval is now implemented (well, sort of; lexicals aren't visible and return values are broken, but it's good enough for roast) 07:15
* All Match objects without an explicit $0 get an $0=$/ alias (Experimental change motivated by moritz and TimToady; doesn't seem to have caused any major breakage, and it helps with DTRT a lot) 07:16
WILL DO
* polish eval some more 07:17
* investigate object model improvments
* investigate numerics hierarchy
BLOCKERS
* none
EOR
10:17 moritz__ is now known as moritz_ 15:26 PerlJam left 15:27 PerlJam joined 17:23 colomon joined 17:27 takadonet joined
moritz_ my pre-report: 17:40
* a bit of niecza hacking (mostly tests)
* fixed the fallout from the reverse-arguments-in-skip() patch by tadzik++ 17:41
* applied for a Hague grant: news.perlfoundation.org/2011/02/hag...truct.html
plans: 17:42
* think more about the exception stuff from the grant
blockers:
* tuits (and motivation in case of the book) 17:43
EOR 17:51

jnthn has a little report
Over the last week...
* Was mostly AFK relaxing and looking after some guests
* Did get some more work done on lexical setting stuff in NQP
This week
* Preparing for NLPW and speaking there on Saturday
* Will have hackathon for 3 days after that
* Hope to get some more progress in on the NQP bits I need to move forward with Rakudo nom branch; specifically, static lex pads and the compile time MOP-y stuff
EOR 19:06

masak jnthn++
jnthn Karma for relaxing \\o. 19:08
:)
colomon got so tied up with $work he completely forgot about #phasers 19:11
nothing to report this week, alas, but I think I've nearly fixed the $work bug that ate half my last week...
19:15 mberends joined
jnthn mberends: Any report? :) 19:20
tadzik I'm here
mberends jnthn: sorry, nothing yet. working hard on something sekrit ;)
tadzik speaking of sikret projects... :) 19:21
jnthn mberends: ooh :)
mberends yes?
jnthn If you speak of them, their sekritness is seriously endangered :)
colomon ooooo
moritz_ still waits for a conclusion of masak's previously sekrit project 19:22
moritz_ can't help teasing :-)
tadzik moritz_: wasn't that the Coding Contest? 19:23
PerlJam tadzik: p5 is as yet unpublished
tadzik yeah
can I report?
moritz_ sure
tadzik so. Closed a bunch of bugs on Sunday, few persons involved, results were promising 19:24
Fixed stupid Test.pm behaviour, that created a little mess even with Parrot people spectesting, but real-real-clean helps, so that's not a big proble 19:25
masak moritz_: I have some p5 time tonight. don't know if it'll be enough, but it might.
tadzik Worked on a new module management solution, something modulear and testable; ended up with, pretty much, masak++'s Pls
Will hack and discuss more on the hackathon this weekend, the current code it on github/tadzik/Pies, or something like this 19:26
hmm, that'd be it
.EOR
pmichaud back 19:27
jnthn o/ pm
tadzik o/
colomon tadzik++
masak I'm happy pls might inspire someone. I haven't worked on it in a long time, but I still believe in the idea of pls as a better proto. 19:32
did the #phasers meeting end? 19:38
tadzik goals?
pmichaud I have a report. 19:39
moritz_ pmichaud: then go ahead
pmichaud as expected, I managed to pretty much finish $otherjob this past week, meaning I have very few @otherjob commitments 19:40
colomon \\o/
pmichaud normally this would free up large numbers of tuits for rakudo/perl6/nqp, but we also got some not-so-good news today that makes my tuit supply very uncertain
colomon errr... at least assuming you don't need @otherjob commitments for $, of course.
:(
19:41 mberends left
pmichaud without going into details (I'll be glad to describe the other details on a non-logged channel), it's related to my previous absences 19:41
moritz_ wishes all involved people of luck 19:42
pmichaud so, while I hope to have plenty of tuits for hacking, that supply could dry up real quickly.
anyway, my plan is to work on book, nqp-nom, and try to keep others from blocking 19:44
if there are any places where my attention is a priority, let me know :)
eor
colomon pmichaud: as usual, let us know if there's anything we can do to help. 19:46
masak wishes to express his support
Util too 19:48
pmichaud thanks, everyone :)
patience and prayers have always been extremely helpful to us :) 19:49
jnthn pmichaud: Best wishes with everything. 19:50
tadzik All best for You 19:54
