No worries there. :) There were no technical problems; inability to complete the reviews was simply a function of time and needing to get a lot of other things in place for GSoC. If nobody else gets to them before I do, I'll be certainly reviewing them and will let you know if there are any questions. Good info though. I'll be testing from a MBP, since that's a core target platform too (and good to have variety). > Is there a specific person who usually works or is the de facto maintainer of > librt? I see Erik and Sean (i.e. you) as mentors in the GSoC page. Most of > the recent commits in librt seem to haven been done by Starseeker. Definitely not. We strive for shared code ownership and encourage folks to make improvements where they see room for improvement, regardless of development legacy (which we have a LOT of). That's part why you won't find individual names in source files too. Librt's history is ... Extensive. :) You shouldn't limit your discussions to anyone (not that you were suggesting that either). The mentors assigned are usually very experienced, but they are mostly the ones that will be filling out your evaluation. We do group mentoring so there can be cross-pollination of ideas and learning. I usually suggest first posing open questions to any dev. If you don't get a response or the answer you need after a few days, reach at more directly (yet still publicly, we want open discourse) to specific individuals. This holds as good practice via mail or IRC. Active discussion, challenging technical considerations, and discourse are encouraged (even amongst other GSoC students). The meritocracy kicks in if/when consensus can't be reached. For that, consulting https://www.openhub.net/p/brlcad/contributors?query=&sort=commits provides a really rough sorting. Excellent questions. Anyone else have any? Lots of new folks here and less than a month to get up to speed. Cheers!
