Steve Teale:

I pushed changes to GitHub (https://github.com/britseye/compo) 
today that allow a clean build with warnings and deprecations 
on using DMD2.064.


In similar projects I suggest to pull out some generally useful 
modules (like some geometry ones), making them independent, and 
making them available (with DUB or on GitHub). This allows 
other projects to re-use those modules and reduce their size.


Bye,
bearophile


I'm 72 in April. I'd like to get what I started finished - 
including documentation - before I die. The source code is there, 
so if there are bits that are generally useful, people can cherry 
pick!


Also, if I come across bits that I think are generally useful, 
like approximating a circle with Bezier curves, or using meshes, 
I try to write an article on my web page that separates it out.


BTW, thank you for your consistent and continuing contributions 
to the development of D ;=)

Well I'm getting close. I've managed to configure a Lua script that
gets run and can emit a listbox with suggestions, I just have to
figure out how to call the DCD client from within Lua. Never used Lua
before.

Eh what am I saying, the TextAdept script is also a Lua script. I can
adapt that. Will see if it works..


Review Candidates awaited!

2014-02-01 Thread Dicebot
Looking at http://wiki.dlang.org/Review_Queue there are 4 
proposals that are marked as Ready for review or Ready for 
comments. I can proceed with any of those any time proposal 
author sends me an e-mail acknowledging his attention.


Walter Bright, Idan Arye, Paul D. Anderson, Michael Rynn - I am 
speaking about you ;)


Also if there is something ready but not in queue - don't 
hesitate about it.

I would prefer that you start with std.xml2. XML is too damn 
common for D to not have a proper XML module in the standard 
library.


std.idioms can wait. It's ready as far as I care - it's a little 
bit thin(only two idioms), but the idea was that once it get 
accepted, other people can add their idioms there. But like I 
said - XML should get priority.

I believe that the last time that Michael Rynn posted in the newsgroup was 
towards the beginning of 2012, and I don't think that he posted very many 
times before that, so I question that his proposal is ever going to go 
anywhere, even if it's completed and fantastic. He doesn't look like he's 
active enough to even see this call for review candidates let alone actually 
active enough to go through the review process.

Is this a good practice to give name: std.xml2 with digit at the 
end? Maybe it would be better to name it's simply std.xml ? And 
for prevent conflict rename old realization as std.xml.old ?


Also what what is the final decision about using std.unicode 
instead of std.uni? The first one is much more logical, than 
short variant.
