@scalexm can you add a few notes about the mentoring instructions you wrote up?
I'm curious if you were able @scalexm to make any progress on that "first chalk integration" branch
Niko Matsakis
@nikomatsakis
@tmandry re: your PR, so, I reprouced the failures
but that was as far as I got
Tyler Mandry
@tmandry
ok. Yeah, we should probably break it down and talk about why each additional thing was needed, handle it one at a time
Niko Matsakis
@nikomatsakis
well
I will maybe have some more time this week
(maybe)
Alexandre Martin
@scalexm
@nikomatsakis ok will update the paper; I didn’t start to work on the chalk integration branch yet, but there are a couple of holidays in France this week and I plan to take some time for that
Niko Matsakis
@nikomatsakis
heh ok
there is some cahnce I will poke on it
but I will ping you if I do
seems like we don't have a lot to say this week
I do have a few micro-announcements
Tyler Mandry
@tmandry
the only other thing I can think of is to split the world into "old traits solver and new traits solver" predicates_of queries
Niko Matsakis
@nikomatsakis
@tmandry let me play a bit and see waht you did before we reach for that :)
Tyler Mandry
@tmandry
yeah agreed :smiley:
Niko Matsakis
@nikomatsakis
I guess a question is: do people feel like they have an idea what to do, that's the real question
e.g., @tmandry, besides that PR, do you have a task in mind for this week?
Tyler Mandry
@tmandry
@nikomatsakis well I have the GATs stuff, I implemented steps 1 and 2 out of 4 (pending some requested changes by @scalexm)
Niko Matsakis
@nikomatsakis
@/all -- so, after all the problems with gitter (and for other, longer-standing reasons), I've been exploring alternate chat forums. One of the most promising seems to be Discord. Would y'all be interested in trying it out for the WG-traits chat?
Tyler Mandry
@tmandry
So I can continue that, or if someone else wants to implement the remaining steps I would check the issue board
