Ok I’m happy to pick up the walkdir lead. I think it’s a fairly safe crate to get my feet wet, there’s plenty of prior work to look at and @burntsushi is already on board. Should be a walk in the park
But if you’re looking at the Libs Team peeps to take on these roles that’s no problem
So far our crate tracking issues have not had a “Release 1.0” issue actually filed, but I kind of think they should. I might go back and do that and link up the tracking issues. Any opinions?
Here’s what is going on in libz blitz news this week. Spoiler alert:
it was another great week! Thanks everybody.
Upcoming we’ll expect @aturon to open the error-chain evaluation
soon. It also looks like we need to get someone on the hook to lead
the mio evaluation to get that evaluation started by 6/11.
I’m also interested in getting some of the “out-of-band” evaluations
going, crates like idna, net2, unicode-segmentation, env_logger. We
can run these exactly as we do the others, but we just won’t schedule
a libs team meeting to finalize them. Anybody interested in leading
them just speak up. I may pick up one myself next week.
Personally I find tracking issues (for versions at least) to be more onerous, and so I assigned all the new issues in reqwest to a ‘v1.0’ milestone instead. The problem with tracking issues is you have to remember to check off issues as they’re closed, and you need to click through to each one to determine if you can check it off. Milestones are automatic.
I would like to suggest HTML parser crates html5ever or its very nice high level wrapper select. Both are sorely in need of documentation. There is already a nice select cookbook example waiting for merge.
Thanks for the suggestion @seanmonstar. I’m open to switching to milestones if that’s what others prefer. One thing we would lose there is a place to write comments about the overall progress, but I don’t know how important that is.
you could always have a ‘tracking issue’ that’s part of the milestone to keep comments and such things? it could link to the milestone rather than to each individual issue in it, and be closed off when the release is made or somesuch
