| ** '''Consensus: mmuetzel preferred not being listed. Rik was OK either way. Other signatories (jwe, siko1056, nrjank, arungiridhar) converged.'''
| |
| ** '''mmuetzel and colin wanted to know other GNU projects that have joined NumFOCUS and how they managed their transition. Arun has reached out to GNU Radio.'''
| |
| ** '''(Follow-up, 2022-12-06: GNU Radio's response strongly encouraged getting classified as a fiscally supported member of NumFOCUS ASAP and redirecting any current funding flows to the new NumFOCUS account. Any funds in the FSF fund gathered for Octave can be requested to be transferred afterwards. We should also let FSF know our intention to become a NumFOCUS project. We should also find out from FSF how much money we have in the Octave account, but that is not a prerequisite for joining NumFOCUS.)'''

| * Pick some "big feature(s)" to work on for Octave 9:
| |
| ** VM?
| |
| ** String class?
| |
| ** Dictionary / hashmap?
| |
| ** Context-sensitive tab completion? (GSoC maybe)
| |
| ** (your ideas here)
| |
| ** '''The string class was agreed upon as the highest priority among the above. It is necessary for other features like the dictionary.'''
| |
| ** '''There was discussion about whether to deprecate existing string behavior for two releases or make a change when it's ready. That was not converged upon, but it was agreed that putting an early notice of potential future breakage in the NEWS file would be good.'''
