Dear all, I have renewed work on helping us adopt a PEP-style procedure for SymPy. The first step would be to agree on a process. Aaron started SymPEP 1 roughly 2 years ago and I've worked on it recently to address all the comments from the past 2 years. My final draft is available for viewing here:
https://github.com/sympy/SymPEPs/pull/2 To follow the process outlined in the SymPEP I would like to propose this draft for acceptance. There have been no real major points of contention, but I suppose there could be unspoken reluctance to adopt this process at all as it adds formality to SymPy's development that we haven't had in the past. I believe we need this formality to allow SymPy to make larger changes so that we can remain a leading open source CAS. Most large changes get bogged down and never realized. This method for adopting and agreeing on change has proven effective in many other major Python projects. *If there are no substantive objections within 7 days from this email, then the SymPEP will be accepted; see SymPEP 1 for more details.* I propose the 7 days, because it has been up for review for 2 years already. Thanks for the support on this. Sincerely, Jason -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
