Hi folks, It is a fact universally acknowledged that an open source developer with an idea is in need of a way to effectively implement the idea. Distributed version control systems such as Mercurial, Git, etc. form the early stage in the evolution of processes of software development. The major idea of this first stage is forking. That is, you see something wrong with a piece of code or you want to improve something. What you would do is fork the code by creating your own working repository. This is all well and good.
But is there another way to improve our habits of software development? I believe yes. The latest craze that has swept the open source world by hurricane... err... storm is spooning. To understand what spooning is, have a look at the tutorial video at https://bitbucket.org/spooning/ There, you will learn about spooning by watching other developers spooning. I want to propose that we adopt spooning as part of our development process. I vote in favour. Please cast your vote below. [] Yes, I want spooning to be part of the Sage development process. [] No, thank you. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. -- Regards, Minh Van Nguyen http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/mvngu/ -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
