Dear Ralf, thanks for this helpful document. What I think is missing is info and link to pages that explain how to get started with a dev version of scipy. Many users have a released version and have never compiled it although they could be contributors. FAQ could be, how to work with a dev version of scipy while keeping the last release to switch between both? You can find such info on the web but it might be worth centralizing them. If it already exists, please let me know and forget this message. my 2c, Alex On Sat, Apr 14, 2012 at 10:56 AM, Ralf Gommers <ralf.gommers@googlemail.com> wrote:
Hi all,
It has been pointed out by a number of people that it's not so easy to get started with contributing to SciPy, and better documentation may help here. So I've written a guide for this. It would be great to get some feedback especially from people who've found it difficult to find this information before. And if you haven't contributed before but were thinking about doing so, perhaps this is a good opportunity to get started!
