Nominate Ashley Kelly as a yt project member
by Nathan Goldbaum June 29, 2018

June 29, 2018

Hi all, I'd like to nominate Ashley Kelly as a yt project member. Ash is working on a google summer of code project this summer on improved support for SPH data in the yt 4.0 branch. He is single-handedly ticking off quite a number of things on our to-do list for yt-4.0 and has expressed a desire to continue working on yt development during his PhD which he will be starting this Fall. He has made significant progress on adding support for "gather" smoothing (see his progress here: https://github.com/yt-project/yt/pull/1828, in particular the image showing the high image quality you get back using gather smoothing). As per YTEP-1776 we need three more project members to +1 the nomination, after which I'll give him a commit bit on GitHub and add a stub entry for him on the members page on the website. -Nathan

Jenkins is down
by Nathan Goldbaum June 28, 2018

June 28, 2018

Hi all, Unfortunately the cluster at NCSA that jenkins runs on is down again. There's currently no ETA for when it will come back up. This crash possibly involved some data corruption so the downtime might be longer than usual. Apologies for the disruption! -Nathan

yt 3.5 bug triage
by Nathan Goldbaum June 26, 2018

June 26, 2018

Hi all, Today Matt, Madicken and myself went through the list of open issues and generated a list of issues that are currently blockers for releasing yt 3.5. You can see them here: https://github.com/yt-project/yt/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+milestone%3A… Some of these are harder than others and we may yet decide to punt on some of these. If you are interested in helping out, please take a look at that list and send in a pull request for any of them. If you have a favorite pet issue you'd like to see fixed for 3.5 and you don't see it on this list, speak now or forever hold your peace. Best, -Nathan

request for review on PR
by Britton Smith June 8, 2018

June 8, 2018

Hi everyone, I have an open PR that adds support for particles and cosmology to the Enzo-P frontend. https://github.com/yt-project/yt/pull/1490 All tests are passing and the documentation should be up to date. If you have any interest in this functionality, I would appreciate it if you could take a few minutes and look this over. It should be ready to go. Accompanying this are two new sample Enzo-P datasets available from yt-project.org/data. If you'd like to play around with this, I suggest getting those. Thanks! Britton

"projects" on github
by Matthew Turk June 7, 2018

June 7, 2018

Hi folks, For the NSF grant, we're looking at ways to track our milestones, etc. Would anyone object to me making a "Project" on GitHub under yt and filling it out with the specific milestones we enumerated? A "Project" is basically like a trello board, and can map cards to issues (but does not have to). This would not need to be completely distinct from other developments and issues and whatnot, but I thought this might be the most convenient way. -Matt

Nominate Abhishek Singh to be a yt project member
by Nathan Goldbaum June 5, 2018

June 5, 2018

Hi all, Abhishek has been working hard on improving the yt test suite for google summer of code. So far he's been focusing on expanding test coverage, speeding up the tests, and decreasing our reliance on big test datasets. He's already merged quite a bit of code even though we've just started. At the rate he's been going on updating the tests I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up among the top several contributors to the codebase by commit count by the end of the summer. If you'd like to follow along with his work, see his blog: https://git-abhishek.github.io/blog/gsoc-week-2_3. Per YTEP-1776 (http://ytep.readthedocs.io/en/latest/YTEPs/YTEP-1776.html) I'd like to nominate Abhishek to be a yt project member. This will allow him to merge other developers pull requests but more importantly for the purposes of his project will give him access to manage the travis and appveyor build configuration which should accelerate his work this summer. According to the rules we need the support of three other project members to second the nomination, at which point I'll add Abhishek to the website and the YTEP document. If you'd like to second just reply saying so to this e-mail thread. We also have one more summer of code student, Ashley Kelly, who is working this summer on the ongoing project to improve support for SPH data in yt-4.0. He's just getting started because he had to do some exams at the end of May but is planning to extend his participation past the end of the official program to make up time. I expect I will be nominating him soon as well. -Nathan
