Not my doing. When I posted my last comment on this ticket I set it to "positive_review" and "wontfix" because I gave up. I cannot do anything against a reviewer like you. Afterwards Ralf changed some stuff, then you set the ticket to needs_review, then it was set to needs_work by somebody else. Honestly it is not my ticket anymore, do what you want with it. About the difference you see between my ticket, which said "remove the function" and what I said here in my previous post : I had not noticed before that having a hidden function was actually a nice middle-ground. You can create functions "for semantics only" if it is useful, but this is an "internal mechanism" of Sage. If you need a function which transforms a Graph into a partition of integer to this end it is good, and you can name it Graph._to_partition if you like, but Graph.to_partition means that the function is unclear and not something users should see. And even if a better name is to be found, I would still claim that this function is really not useful to users (though it may be useful for the databases you want to build), and as such has nothing to do in the (already quite crowded) list of graph functions. So, yeah. Basically, I had not noticed that having a hidden function with a decorator on it (named to_partition if needed) was a good middle ground. > As long as this is the case, Nathann's arguments are incoherent and > contradictory, and any conversation on the list will turn in circles. > > My summary assessment so far is that Nathann is wrong, the implementation by > findstat of their ideas is poor, and the burden is on all of us to improve > it, particularly those who care the most.
