2026-04-02 21:16:12 +0200 <Athas> I have heard that some released software has bugs, so maybe fixing them all is not necessary before tagging a release.
2026-04-02 21:15:52 +0200 <tomsmeding> (There's probably more!)
2026-04-02 21:15:43 +0200 <tomsmeding> also fixing all the bugs in the GPU backend. That took us a year or so
2026-04-02 21:15:27 +0200 <tomsmeding> Athas: kinda yes, but also what's mostly slow is getting everyone to respond to an email.
2026-04-02 21:15:00 +0200 <tomsmeding> davean: I something in an area that could involve Accelerate, but likely will not for practical reasons
2026-04-02 21:14:20 +0200 <Athas> Also, Accelerate comprises many packages, so release engineering is harder than a tag (I suppose).
2026-04-02 21:14:19 +0200 <tomsmeding> currently forming is a new category containing 1 person who is not moving on and yet not a PhD student any more. We'll see how that category develops

2026-04-02 21:14:05 +0200 <EvanR> someone write "AI" somewhere on accelerate to get more funding and support
2026-04-02 21:14:03 +0200 <davean> Well what is your postdoc?
2026-04-02 21:13:32 +0200 <tomsmeding> I wasn't even officially connected to accelerate, really, but I dragged myself into it (for better or for worse), and am now transitioning from 3 to 1
2026-04-02 21:12:52 +0200 <tomsmeding> davean: the people "connected" with accelerate fall into 3 categories: 1. moved on (other job, other interests, etc.); 2. is a full professor and is busy; 3. is a PhD student and is busy

2026-04-02 21:11:19 +0200 <davean> tomsmeding: haha, why has it failed to get updates? Its lack of maintanership really hurts it.
2026-04-02 21:11:02 +0200 <tomsmeding> At least, Ivo's intent is to have a release earlier than five years from now, but then, previously there was also an intent.
2026-04-02 21:09:08 +0200 <Athas> A productive end.

2026-04-02 21:05:35 +0200 <tomsmeding> This was my last act of vengeance here in Utrecht before I leave for a postdoc :)
2026-04-02 21:05:02 +0200 <tomsmeding> I hope not, but that's out of my hands :)
2026-04-02 21:04:50 +0200 <tomsmeding> I don't know!
2026-04-02 21:04:11 +0200 <Athas> tomsmeding: will it be five years untli the next update?
