Jury duty this month, but that was more than made up for with tasty, tasty pizza – thank you Shari! February had lots of great stuff.
Google Summer of Code
We have been accepted!
Got a project to pitch? It’s not too late! Students are already rolling into irc so if you want to mentor this summer the sooner you let me know the better.
Community Council
Tag teaming with Alison on a formal proposal for our community council. Initial council attempt hit some potholes but I’m glad for it since it’s given us a much better idea of what we want the council to become.
Fingers crossed that it’s successful!
Besides this just a handful of Stem changes…
- Patrick migrated our cryptographic descriptor validation from pycrypto (which is unmaintained) to cryptography.
- Further sped up our tests. Unit and integ tests now run 15% faster, and @only_run_once is fixed so the ‘RUN_ALL’ target is dramatically faster.
- Corrected unesacaping of controller responses. Thansk to this authentication cookies with non-English characters in their path now work.
See ya all in Amsterdam!
