Many small tasks were done, and while that looks +like many items of work, it wasn't a huge amount over-all due to the size of +them. Daniel did not get his [[!issue 20]] done, and the Python context +namespace issue ([[!issue 80]]) was also not done. + +We chose therefore to demilestone [[!issue 20]]. + +# Review + +We had not MRs or branches to review. We reviewed issues younger than 2 weeks +from last change, picking a few for the new iteration. + +We reviewed Lars' questions on the [[!issue 53]] and decided: + +- Code/Test in the same file is OK until the tests overwhelm the code +- We do not have complex enough code to warrant multiple crates at this time + as sibling modules are sufficiently protected from one another. +- We want to split out a `src/doc.rs` module for the `Document` struct and + friends. [[!issue 88]] was created for this. + +We went through [[!issue 82]] and wrote a rough plan of action and a set of +labels to indicate this is not hard and we'd love help to get it done. + +We added a brief explanation more to [[!issue 74]]. + +The new iteration [[!milestone 14]] has TODO assigned issues: + +- [[!issue 80]] (moved from 13) assigned to Lars +- [[!issue 86]] we logged some suggests here too, assigned to Lars +- [[!issue 88]] assigned to Lars +- [[!issue 85]] we added some suggestions for other `:foo` too +- [[!issue 83]] + +# Discussion + +Lars would like to review the codebase with a view to deciding what is the next +step for [[!issue 53]] but as of now there's not really anything good to format +the content well enough for him to be comfortable reviewing it on his +reMarkable. + +Regarding the use of subplot by others, we previously said that we needed the +documentation to cover everything that Subplot lets you do. Lars is going to +talk with a friend/colleague of his who is a sysadmin with a background in +technical writing so if she's interested then it's possible she might be able to +help with that. + +With respect to having `subplot.liw.fi`'s content on gitlab, the only benefit +Daniel can think of is that it'd be easier for third parties to contribute +changes. In the end we decided that until someone says "I would contribute if +only the website were on Gitlab" we'll stick with things as they are. + +We discussed possible issues which a newcomer to Rust and to the project might +find easy to do. [[!issue 22]] (The plantuml one) might be a good one to +start with. + +We should also keep our eyes peeled for "easy" Rust changes which we could file +easy/mentor/help-wanted issues to file. + +# Actions + +No unusual actions came out of the meeting. -- cgit v1.2.1
