WHAT I DID |
| 16:20 |
|
whiteknight |
* Triaged a bunch of tickets and closed several (#1151, #993, #909, #827, #467, #1860, #581, #628, #642, #194, #299, #300, #1770, #548, #1450) |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* Assigned myself to tickets dealing with HLLs, embedding/extending, and our users |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* Stopped hashes from autovivifying (#1561). Will work on arrays next to try and get that ticket closed. |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* Cleaned up some metadata in Trac |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* Worked more on the embed_api branch. With my most recent commits (not pushed) We can build and run parrot normally again |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* created dynlexpad_iter branch to make the DynLexPad PMC type iterable. Prototype code is in place, as soon as somebody writes a use-case or test for me I will be able to merge it (#1028) |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* Created the get_user_id branch to solve issues in #731. Can merge and close if somebody can write me a test for the behavior |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* Creating several dozen GCI tasks for enthusiastic students |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* Started contacting Parrot users as part of the Product Management role to start getting feedback. Am thinking about holding semi-regular meetings for the purpose |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* Sent out an email to the list asking people to focus on deprecations and experimentals for the 2.11 release. Several tickets I mentioned have already been closed. I have several questions to bring up today and in the next few #ps meetings |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* Working to prepare for PDS on December 5th. |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
WHAT I WILL DO |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* Continue working on the embed_api branch. Would like to get it usable, if not merge-ready by the end of the week. Will likely need some feedback and maybe a deprecation or two before final merge. |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* Continue working on GCI, creating new tasks and mentoring students |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
* Continue working on ticket triage. Hoping to get down to 550 tickets or less (close about 50) before 2.11. Help is always appreciated. |
| 16:21 |
|
whiteknight |
WHAT I AM BLOCKING ON |
| 16:21 |
|

Okay, let's get started. How did we do last week? |
| 20:34 |
|
bacek |
2 releases, few branches merged, some tickets closed. |
| 20:34 |
|
whiteknight |
:) Thanks for the recap, bacek |
| 20:34 |
|
bacek |
plobsing++ did a great job ripping a lot of deprecated code |
| 20:35 |
|
whiteknight |
yes he did. plobsing++ for the CodeString PMC deprecation |
| 20:35 |
|
whiteknight |
Our goals for last week were vague, as I remember. Getting a few branches merged probably satisfies |
| 20:36 |
|
Util |
bacek++ merged a GC branch, which was a goal for last week |

40 closed tickets is very good. Good job everybody |

for this week I would like my proposal of GenGC reviewed (carefully); Packfile PMCs design revamped; past_optimization merged. |

Questions. Cotto? |
| 20:39 |
|
cotto |
bacek wants to merge gsoc_past_optimizations to get tcurtis++'s work back into master. Any thoughts? |
| 20:40 |
|
whiteknight |
Does it need eyes/testing? |
| 20:40 |
|
cotto |
I think it's ready to merge. |
| 20:40 |
|
whiteknight |
okay. +1 from me then |
| 20:40 |
|
cotto |
same here |
| 20:40 |

tcurtis |
It isn't. |
| 20:40 |

....damnit |
| 20:40 |

cotto |
tcurtis, dang |
| 20:40 |
|
whiteknight |
tcurtis: what state is it in? |
| 20:42 |
|
whiteknight |
cotto: second question (while we wait for tcurtis)? |
| 20:43 |
|
tcurtis |
It's not up-to-date with https://github.com/ekiru/tree-optimization and in that up-to-date code there's a bug when supplying the :combine option to Tree::Optimizer.run. Other than that, I don't remember any other bugs. I'm planning to work on getting the parrot branch up-to-date this weekend so hopefully bugfixing and testing can occur. |
| 20:43 |
|
cotto |
even if it's not perfect, getting it into master will give it more eyeballs |
| 20:43 |
|
whiteknight |
maybe as a branch in parrot/parrot |
| 20:44 |
|
cotto |
there's already a branch for gsoc_past_optimization |
| 20:44 |
|
whiteknight |
oh, right. can we update that with the latest code? |
| 20:44 |
|
plobsing |
we have a culture of pulling everything and anything into core. why do we *need* this in core at the current time? can't bacek rely on it as an additional dependancy? |
| 20:44 |
|
mikehh |
that seemed to stall as tcurtis moved onto git with tree-optimization |
| 20:45 |
|
whiteknight |
I think several people want to use it, and that it could become a pretty central part of the standard compiler infrastructure |
| 20:45 |
|
whiteknight |
plobsing: but you're right, we have lots of stuff in core that could easily be ejected |
| 20:46 |
|
cotto |
we should consider coming up with a policy of what belongs in core and what doesn't |
| 20:46 |
|
* tcurtis |
has to go now. |
| 20:46 |
|
tcurtis |
Bye, folks. |
| 20:46 |
|
whiteknight |
tcurtis++ |
| 20:46 |
|
plobsing |
several people wanting to use it now (but for some reason not being able to do so) feels more like a failing of plumage than an argument to pull it into core |
| 20:46 |
|
whiteknight |
cotto: good point. Anybody interested in drafting such a policy? |
| 20:47 |
|
kid51 |
What exactly does "pulling it into core" mean? |
| 20:47 |
|
whiteknight |
kid51: including new things in the parrot repository |
| 20:47 |
|
cotto |
kid51, putting it into runtime/parrot/library |
| 20:47 |
|
whiteknight |
as opposed to keeping it in a separate repository |
| 20:47 |
|
kid51 |
Those are two different answers |
| 20:47 |
|
mikehh |
we already have a problem with core as certain ops are now generated by nqp-rx etc and that is NOT part of core |
| 20:47 |
|
kid51 |
Something can be in runtime/parrot/library and be in master |
| 20:48 |
|
|
tcurtis left #parrotsketch |
| 20:48 |
|
whiteknight |
nqp-rx is developed externally and snapshots are included in the parrot repo. |
| 20:48 |
|
whiteknight |
there are different degrees of inclusion |
| 20:48 |
|
cotto |
whiteknight, I'll be thinking about what such a policy would look like. |
| 20:49 |
|
whiteknight |
cotto++ |
| 20:49 |
|
whiteknight |
ok, cotto you had another question? |
| 20:49 |
|
cotto |
Given that our long-term plan is to move away from a C-based PIR compiler to a self-hosted one (PIRATE), what do people think of removing pirc from the repo? |
| 20:49 |
|
plobsing |
that was my question as well |
| 20:49 |
|
whiteknight |
+1 from me. It's sad to see it go, but it isn't on the roadmap |
| 20:50 |
|
NotFound |
+1 |
| 20:50 |
|
plobsing |
I'd like to see it extracted to a separate github project. |
| 20:50 |
|
cotto |
I also hate to throw away work, but it's a sunk cost. |
| 20:50 |
|
whiteknight |
plobsing: I agree, but I worry that it will just die there (as opposed to dieing where it is now) |
| 20:50 |
|
whiteknight |
I still think PIRC could be made to work without too much effort, but that's a gamble |
| 20:51 |
|
cotto |
we can create a tag before ripping it out so it'll be easier to move to a separate project if someone wants to |
| 20:51 |
|
whiteknight |
maybe we export it first, before just deleting it |
| 20:51 |
|
plobsing |
I'd like to see it work, but I think the basic assumptions about it's role are the same as IMCC, which is most of the problem in the first place. |
| 20:52 |
|
whiteknight |
does it's removal require a deprecation cycle? I don't think so since it's never really been used |
| 20:52 |
|
cotto |
whiteknight, what do you mean by "export"? |
| 20:52 |
|
mikehh |
it was supposed to replace IMCC but ran into a bus number problem |
| 20:52 |
|
whiteknight |
cotto: move it to it's own repo, as opposed to just deleting it |
| 20:52 |
|
cotto |
whiteknight, it's not part of the external interface afaik |
| 20:52 |
|
cotto |
wfm if we have a volunteer |
| 20:53 |
|
whiteknight |
okay. no to deprecation then |

whiteknight |
okay, cotto your questions are answered? |
| 20:54 |
|
cotto |
plobsing, can you post to parrot-dev once you've extracted pirc? |
| 20:54 |
|
cotto |
whiteknight, yes |
| 20:55 |
|
whiteknight |
plobsing: question away |
| 20:55 |
|
cotto |
I'm sure we'll have no trouble finding volunteers to rip it out. |
| 20:55 |
|
plobsing |
can we deprecate PIR? by that I mean the assumption that a PIR compiler is always available in parrot? |
| 20:55 |
|
whiteknight |
ah, I like that idea |
| 20:56 |

whiteknight |
and it may become necessary as the embedding API progresses |

agree with NotFound |

plobsing |
you'd still be able to get it if you wanted, you'd just need to load it. you don't get it "for free" anymore |

plobsing |

whiteknight, you might scare people with that attitude. ;) |

| 21:02 |

okay, weak support. We'll discuss it elsewhere. Moving on |

2) Parrot::Embed, I suggest we pull it out of the master repo and turn it into it's own project. parrot/Parrot-Embed on github maybe. I think it will get more exposure that way |

But maybe we should wait until the embed/extend api matures a bit, |
| 21:04 |
|
whiteknight |
I can agree with that |
| 21:04 |
|

+1, if it returns to the main Parrot repo when it is done. |
| 21:04 |
|
whiteknight |
Util: what do you mean? |
| 21:04 |
|
whiteknight |
like in ext/? |
| 21:05 |
|
Util |
The extend APIs and embed APIs should live with the main code. Wait, am I confused as to what Parrot::Embed is? |
| 21:05 |
|
whiteknight |
Parrot::Embed is the Perl5 module |
| 21:05 |
|
whiteknight |
to include parrot in Perl5 |

Parrot:Embed is for embedding parrot in Perl5 machine, isn'it? |
| 21:06 |
|
cotto |
that's what the README says |
| 21:06 |
|
whiteknight |
yes, it's a wonderful XS module |
| 21:06 |
|
NotFound |
Sometimes we can't trust our READMEs ;) |
| 21:07 |
|
whiteknight |
okay, that one passes. I'll ask one more question and save the rest for next week |
| 21:07 |
|

3) find_codepoint PIR op. It's the replacement for some functionality originally found in Codestring. It's experimental, should probably be official. Vote to make it not experimental? |
| 21:07 |

whiteknight: I think rakudo needs it. |

but it requires icu, i think |
| 21:09 |
|
whiteknight |
does it? We'll have to evaluate that then |
| 21:09 |
|
cotto |
whiteknight, go on if you have more questions. We're only 40 minutes in. |
| 21:09 |
|
whiteknight |
okay, I can do this all day |
| 21:09 |
|
NotFound |
nwellnhof: a lot of things requires ICU and aren't experimental. |
| 21:09 |
|
plobsing |
the op is still defined without ICU, but it throws unconditionally |
| 21:10 |
|
plobsing |
code will still compile, but won't work if you try to use Unicode without ICU. seems reasonable to me |
| 21:10 |
|
darbelo |
Most of our unicode support is a 'throwing stub' without ICU. |

4) PARROT_LIBRARY and PARROT_INCLUDE env vars. They are marked experimental, but they've been in for a few releases now |
| 21:11 |
|
whiteknight |
do we continue to keep them supported, or do we not like them? |
| 21:11 |
|
NotFound |
whiteknight: I think they can keep experimental. |
| 21:11 |
|
plobsing |
they're crufty |
| 21:11 |
|
whiteknight |
okay |
| 21:11 |
|
darbelo |
Does anyone really use them? |
| 21:12 |
|
NotFound |
darbelo: me, when expermienting. |
| 21:12 |
|
darbelo |
Sounds experimental :) |
| 21:12 |
|
whiteknight |
okay. We'll keep them as experimental for now, and bring it back up again later |
| 21:13 |
|
whiteknight |
5) OpenGL bindings. Do they belong in the master repo or should they be moved out to their own home? |
| 21:13 |
|
NotFound |
People asked for "some way" to do something like that while command line fakecutables don't allow that functionality. There is a ticket about that. |
| 21:13 |

NotFound |
The env vars, I mean. |
| 21:13 |

mikehh |
there are problems there with long long |

+1 to opengl being a separate project |
| 21:14 |
|

whiteknight: I think is the one mentioned in DEPRECATED.pod |
| 21:14 |

whiteknight |
Notfound: okay. I'll steal that one then |

there are quite a few bits that belong in plumage - BTW what's happening there |
| 21:15 |
|
NotFound |
Util: no, the problem was not having the command line options that parrot main has. |
| 21:15 |
|
NotFound |
The env vars are a workaround for that. |
| 21:16 |
|
cotto |
what is the status of plumage? |
| 21:16 |
|
whiteknight |
probably needs love |
| 21:16 |
|
plobsing |
I have an alternative idea to solve the fakecutable arguments problem. I'll throw up an RFC |
| 21:16 |
|
NotFound |
cotto: it worked fine last times I chekced. |
| 21:16 |
|
whiteknight |
plobsing++ Great idea |
| 21:16 |
|
Util |
Ah! I recommend shell scripts in place of the fakecutable for that situation. |
| 21:17 |
|

we probably need to get smolder reports working for plumage, then we can keep better track of it |

any other opinions on OpenGL moving out, or do we shelve that till later? |

...okay, I'll hold all the rest of my questions for next week. Let's move on to goals for this week |
| 21:20 |
|
whiteknight |
bacek wants people to read his new proposal for Generational GC. I suggest everybody read it, even if they don't think they will like it or understand it |
| 21:20 |
|
plobsing |
where is it? |
| 21:20 |
|
whiteknight |
It's on his branch somewhere. I'll post a link to the list |
| 21:21 |
|
cotto |
I'll at least read that, if not try to give his code some review. |
| 21:21 |
|
whiteknight |
The New York Times calls it "enthralling" |
| 21:22 |

https://github.com/parrot/parr[…]c/src/gc/gc_ms2.c <-this one? |
| 21:22 |
|
whiteknight |
yes, that looks like it |
| 21:24 |
|
whiteknight |
any other goals this week besides gsoc_past_optimizations and generational_gc? |
| 21:25 |
|
whiteknight |
okeydokey then |
| 21:25 |
|
mikehh |
GCI? |
| 21:25 |
|
cotto |
packfile work |
| 21:26 |
|
whiteknight |
ah yes, GCI is a good goal. We have a lot of tasks in there now, but we need a hell of a lot more |
| 21:26 |
|
whiteknight |
if we don't put out enough tasks, we won't be able to adequately take advantage of all that slave labor |
| 21:27 |
|
whiteknight |
cotto: is packfile stuff something we are going to do this week? |
| 21:28 |
|
whiteknight |
or are we just planning it this week? |
| 21:28 |
|
NotFound |
I have a goal: people that asked for Parrot_getpid, please do some testing and report. |

mikehh |
anything on the summit? |

whiteknight |
mikehh: We'll send out more emails (no responses to the last one) |

don't worry, there will be more |
