---------------------------------------
Hi [~cur4so]
>but it's almost a week has past. Any updates?
As the project is maintained by volunteers, it is normal that some issues have
a long delay to have a response. This delay may be hours, days, weeks, or
months. Depends mostly on the schedule of each volunteer.
I was on vacation with limited Internet for the past three and half weeks,
coming back today, and first reviewing things at $work, then seeing
family/friends, re-organizing life, and only then going to have fun again as a
volunteer with Open Source.
So don't feel bad to bump issues if there's no activity, but don't expect a
response as fast as in projects where we have a maintainer being paid to work
and reply on issues :-)
[~erans] has managed most issues in math and rng. I will try to review the pull
request this week, but without spending much time on the actual implementation
as I'm not familiar with the algorithm or its use cases. I will look at the
points Giles pointed before, and the normal ASF standards (test regressions,
code style, etc).
Cheers
Bruno
