Hi Christiaan, I would like to contribute to the DM 2.x (if possible) > > Where can I find more info the current development? >
Sorry for the delay in responding, I just got back from a conference and am catching up on email right now. The first thing you should do is check out the roadmap: https://github.com/datamapper/dm-core/wiki/Roadmap Right now most of the work is happening under solnic and my (dkubb) github accounts: https://github.com/solnic https://github.com/dkubb I would recommend following both of those accounts since probably more than 95% of what we commit to is related to DataMapper. Under those accounts, you'll want to check the gems prefixed with veritas that I maintain, and the virtus gems that solnic maintains. Keep in mind those are code names; we don't want people to be using them yet until the foundation is ready because we don't have enough people helping to simultaneously maintain DM1 *and* DM2 gems. We're using obscure names so that only people who are motivated to help out will ever find them :) Under solnic's account we're also spiking out a mapper (dm-mapper) and session libraries (dm-session). Even though the name of our library is "DataMapper" the actual mapper is probably going to be one of the simpler components. It's the foundational libraries that handle working with the DB where most of the complexity lives. The best thing to do is read over these projects, and then drop into the #datamapper IRC channel and ping solnic or dkubb if you want to talk about your plans. Chances are one of the existing projects will pique your interest, but if you don't one of us would be glad to discuss what kinds of things you're interested in and find something that matches what you want to work on. In the time I've worked on oss I've discovered it's not enough to just have a list of outstanding tasks and people will just pick from them... all that leads to is tasks that get claimed first but never finished, blocking someone else who might actually complete it. A better way is to find parts of the project that people are genuinely excited about working on, so that there's a chance it will get completed and merged in; and if it stalls out for a few weeks then we put it back into the queue for someone else to try. -- Dan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DataMapper" group.
