Hi there,

My current employer is organizing regular "hack weeks" where engineers can work on the projects of their choice. My team is using a lot of pydata tools, including numpy, so contributing to NumPy would be natural. Before I decide to add NumPy as a project, I want to make sure it does not create more burden for the maintainers, the goal is to help the project, and for my team's members to help them contributing to OSS in "proper way".

I would have time to prepare the hack week, making sure we prepare good PRs, and even use this time to actually review existing PRs myself. While I have been away from the project for a long time, I should still be able to review code, help my team building / testing / debugging, etc.

Does that sound useful ?

The first hack week would be held from 23th to 27th March, in Tokyo. Everybody would be remote because of the coronavirus, so except for time difference, if it makes sense, people outside of my employer could join.


Good to hear from you. We always appreciate help, especially if it comes with some experience :) It would also be helpful if you reviewed the NEPs dealing with dtypes. We don't get as much feedback from users as we would like and if you are using a lot of the open source tools your perspective could be very helpful. Keep us informed, and maybe toss around some ideas for discussion. We have community meetings on zoom every Wednesday at 12:00 noon Pacific time, so you may want to drop in if the time works for you.

So to clarify, I am expecting to have people from my team making most of the contributions. In this case, since people are not so familiar w/ the internal of NumPy, I was thinking more about bugs / docs / etc. than the hard stuff like dtype.

I will try to join the meeting next week though (where are the info to join ?),

David
