The past week rocked. I was especially impressed with the localizers. The guys who bear through translating an entire browser with associated websites to expose their country to an awesome browsing experience are simply electrifying.
It was great to see the South American guys again and to meet hordes of Europeans.
The most exciting outcome of the summit in my neck of the static analysis woods is that DXR (a semantically aware successor to MXR) will be rewritten from scratch in Python. Another reason to rejoice is that a tracing spidermonkey should make Treehydra ridiculously fast without much (or any) effort on my part.
One Response to “Summit”
I missed that session… I’m very glad to hear the DXR-in-python outcome, as the use of Perl was going to be my only complaint!
Any word on where this is going to be centralized, or the time-line? I’d like to get involved, coming from the perspective of someone who is interested in superimposing performance information on an mxr/dxr-like view. See my efforts on pecobro, strictly javascript (save for some xpidl .idl support) and strictly hacky: http://www.visophyte.org/blog/category/visualizing/program-execution/
