Sorry for my ignorant question, but I just can't find the official source code of Scilab and its version control platform. Googling the term "Scilab source code" will bring results:
http://bit.ly/2YG4cIN where in many cases the webpages are down :( as I have reported here https://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16022 1. I know there is forge: forge.scilab.org which seem to be based on svn, and there are a lot of repositories for toolboxes and ATOMS but I can't see the Scilab itself. 2. There is the codereview.scilab.org but I don't know which of the many Scilab accounts I have should be used to login there and there is no option for registration. 3. there is http://gitweb.scilab.org/ which seems to be just a log inventory and there is no option to register either. 4. there is the svn.scilab.org --> suggested here http://bit.ly/2WH9FgN on wiki but not sure if this is the source code or just the mac port of the software. (beside I don't think we should use svn anymore). Moreover, I don't know how I can commit or send pull requests. 5. There are some GitHub repositories: - https://github.com/ScilabOrg/scilab - https://github.com/opencollab/scilab - https://github.com/scilab/scilab --> (this one has been suggested here in the wiki http://bit.ly/2U9pL5L ) but I still don't know who is behind these mirrors and which one is the official one. The Scilab sister projects Nelson and Balisc are using GitHub and it seems to be working pretty nicely. Sadly my request for migrating the stack to GitHub or GitLab has not been welcomed: https://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16018 As you may see it is pretty difficult for anyone outside the Scilab developers to get in and contribute. This is not nice. It would be great if Scilab decision makers could take action on this matter and make sure novice people like me can also contribute.
