At this stage DIP process is not intended to guarantee quality review, it has rather different purpose of providing standard protocol for proposing language change to be evaluated by Andrei and Walter.
Hopefully we'll get more structure than that soon. The key would be to get language design experts on team for core language matters. For library matters we have a few experts on roster already who can weigh in. Also, in the future we'll need more specialized teams for things like numerics, concurrency, parallelism etc.
In this specific case I have warned both DIP authors that their proposals are scheduled for decision in the beginning of October (via Github ping, sadly they haven't provided me e-mail contacts) but so far there were neither more improvements coming nor request to delay the decision. In such situation I don't see any reason to keep things waiting. Better to have official decision from Andrei and Walter and move on, otherwise it will degrade to the state of old DIP queue.
Agreed. So can I consider the deadline has passed, take a snapshot of the DIP from github, and review it? My plan (after consulting with Walter as well) is to provide a detailed written review with a decision.
Thanks, Andrei _______________________________________________ dmd-internals mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puremagic.com/mailman/listinfo/dmd-internals
