+Subject: 9.0 Release Paper
+
All,
Timo and I have started to work on a few things necessary for the next
release. In particular, we would like to get the release paper started.
To this end:
* Please check out https://github.com/dealii/release-papers
* If you think that you have contributed in a way that warrants co-authorship,
- please add yourself to the list of authors for the 8.5 papers
+ please add yourself to the list of authors for the 9.0 paper
* If you think that someone other than just us maintainers should be a
co-author, please nominate that person here
We think that these last two points are important -- we want the list of
their work in terms of things they can put on their CV.
As far as content of the paper is concerned: I put together a list of
-possible topics -- please take a look. Other things we /could/ talk about,
-if we think they are important, but that I'm not sure are good material:
-* PVS static checker, coverity, ...
-* GridReordering rewrite
-* No longer use features of C++ deprecated with C++11/14/17
-* Move operators
-* Python bindings
-Please discuss. Also suggest topics I may have forgotten.
+possible topics -- please take a look.
As far as the material I tentatively put into the paper: if you're willing
to write a section, can you attach your name to it somehow in the next
