Dear all, I've crafted a proposal for a message detailing posting guidelines for the user forum. It can be found here . I purposely kept it light-hearted to prevent it from coming across as too aggressive or dictatorial. Any

Re: [dealii-developers] Posting guidelines for the user forum

Dear Wolfgang and David, Thanks very much for your feedback. I've tried to implement your suggestions as best I could, so I hope that this satisfies your requests. I'm unaware of what words/phrases are of British descent but I'm happy to "Americanize" whatever text requires it. In this context,

[dealii-developers] Promoting developer version documentation in search engines and user forum posts

Dear all, When I answer posts on the forum I try my best to add links to relevant portions of the documentation. I tend to choose (when I remember to do so) those from the developer page because I anticipate that these links would exist in perpetuity as we move to version 9 and beyond. As somet

[dealii-developers] Building deal.II with ccache

Dear all, I've recently become aware of ccache , although I have no experience with it whatsoever. Is this something that may benefit us when it comes to recompiling deal.II during development? It looks like it might be quite easy to integrate

[dealii-developers] Code DOI's via Zenodo

Dear all, I've recently been made aware of Zenodo , a facility to give code and scientific datasets a DOI number. What are your views on giving the tutorials (and, if the individual authors wanted it, the code-gallery examples) a DOI? It could be of benefit (and an "extra

Thanks for the replies thus far. Interesting points that you both have raised. I was only introduced to Zenodo this last week and have just created an account, so I wasn't fully aware of how it could / would have to be used. To put this in context, Andrew and I were having a discussion related

Hi Timo, Firstly, thanks for all of the comments on the previous questions I raised. They were very helpful. I acknowledge and agree that every point you’ve listed here requires some (if not extensive) debate. I agree that “formally” assigning authorship to all tutorials would perhaps discoura
