Online Developer Meeting (2023-06-27): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 21:35, 26 May 2023

FYI: Colin Macdonald applied (and received) the [GitLab for Open Source](https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/open-source/) programme for https://GitLab.com/gnu-octave.
- alternative to github.com/gnu-octave.
- large number of CI/CD minutes, compared to the low-tier offering.
- It must be renewed yearly (by Colin, although I think that can be changed).
Others stuff?

GSoC updates
- Andreas and Nick described initiation so far. Students start work next week.
VM update and planning:
- Add to default by Jun 30, giving 5-6 months of wider testing?
- jwe will review in next 3-4 weeks. If he doesn't do it by the next meeting, the VM is to be pushed. Set default runtime compilation setting to false but configuration can be left enabled by default.
New warnings from GCC 13.1 (GUI threading issue?)
- Others will try to replicate as they get gcc 13 on their machines. No obvious bugs came to mind but some things may need to be reworked to avoid intermediates.
Status of coding community events?
- No updates. Polls haven't been made yet.
Discourse policy on AI bots.
- Agreed that bots are bad as of now, spread bogus answers, cause much extra work for moderators. One user was already suspended. The FAQ will be updated so that "post your own stuff" precludes AI copy-paste.
