Unresolved questions
This section contains de-duplicated ideas/questions from
@
Nicholas M
and
@
David W
‘s gists.
How to organize compiler team calendar?
One calendar for everything or one per working group?
How to organize videos so people can find them?
e.g. playlists on YouTube, rustc-guide chapter
How do we make it easy to add them?
Some are specific to a working group or limited subset of contributors?
How to run open-ended tasks?
e.g. lecture series, triage, rustc
“university”
What is the role of the steering meeting?
In-depth discussion of topics that come up during the week?
Judge newer proposals?
Decide if the set of working groups should change?
When should we post agendas?
How should we get
“inbound”
prioritization requests?
e.g. if embedded working group has something they want or someone has a cool idea
(pipelined
compilation)
Use the steering meeting?
Expert list
Where should this be found?
This is related to
“Advertising”
the compiler team
point below.
How should it be maintained?
What qualifies as expert?
Journeypeople
What should the name of this group be?
Criteria for membership?
Equivalent to r+ rights?
“Expiration” after some time?
How to make this a useful concept?
Relevant Q: what problem does this aim to solve?
Other clarifications:
Are journeypeople members of the compiler team or is this a step toward being a member of the team?
What is the expected conduct of a journeyperson? Does this change at all? Are there more expectations?
How can journeypeople be useful to existing full compiler team members?
Managing the mundane
(ensuring
everyone is added everywhere)
Interaction with
rust-lang/team
repository/effort by pietroalbini.
Need to work out what all the things people need access to are.
Working groups
What guidelines should exist for working groups?
e.g. effective meetings, note taking, check-ins at steering meetings, etc.
Directory structure in
rust-lang/compiler-team
repository
index.md
and some other files already exist
