| 51 | * wxlocale error upon starting: See https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/2101. Martin will have a look. |
| 52 | * Backporting: |
| 53 | * To avoid that future releases have problems, it would be better to let new features stay in main for a while so they get tested better and, instead release more frequently so to avoid waiting forever to get the new features out. |
| 54 | * Adopting feature freezing for releases would prevent these last minute new features backport. |
| 55 | * We should make more tests in GitHub actions to avoid bugs like the compilation bug shipped with 8.0.0, though recreating a no-network env within GitHub might be tricky (if possible). |
| 56 | * Google Summer of Code 2022: |
| 57 | * Anna created the wiki page and called for ideas and mentors. She also sent a reminder/invitation to grass-dev. |
| 58 | * This year GSoC will also admit non-students as long as this is their first contribution to open source software. |
| 59 | * Parallelization will be again part of the ideas as other modules may take advantage of running in parallel. Huidae agree to mentor this idea. |
| 60 | * Anna also suggested the cmake compilation as a potential project. |
| 61 | * DOI/Citation: |
| 62 | * Markus proposed to order the n contributors from the last 12 months counting backwards from the release date (a sort of moving windows). |
| 63 | * We discussed which criteria to use for the ordering and opted for number of lines changed over number of commits. |
| 64 | * Automation using GitHub api to be studied (Vaclav?). |
| 65 | * Markus found a command line call, but it lists contributors by number of commits: |
| 66 | `curl -H "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json" https://api.github.com/repos/OSGeo/grass/contributors` |
