Have you a project plan you can share? While your GSoC proposal<br>
contained a plan, we did not publish the proposals this year, and<br>
there are likely to be changes to the plan as you learn more detail.<br>
<br>
You've said "Review the source code of sugar after 0.112 is released".<br>
I'm worried that isn't exactly what I had expected. I've seen you<br>
have been reviewing the current sugar code. Perhaps I did a bad job<br>
of explaining it.<br>
<br>
Our project idea<br>
<a href="https://github.com/sugarlabs/GSoC/blob/master/Ideas-2020.md#port-sugar-and-core-activities-to-python-3" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/sugarlabs/GSoC/blob/master/Ideas-2020.md#port-sugar-and-core-activities-to-python-3</a><br>
may be a bit difficult to parse, so I'll take the first item on the<br>
list and expand it for you.<br>
<br>
"Review the Sugar source code changes since 0.112 that were made for<br>
porting to Python 3,"<br>
<br>
0. consider the set of repositories sugar, sugar-toolkit-gtk3,<br>
sugar-artwork, sugar-toolkit-gtk3, and each of the Fructose "core"<br>
activity repositories,<br>
<br>
1. in each repository, list the set of _commits_ after the date of<br>
the 0.112 tag, (not the source code of the master branch, but the<br>
commits that led to it),<br>
<br>
2. exclude the commits that were not made for porting to Python 3,<br>
<br>
3. review the commits for correctness using our "Guide for Reviewers"<br>
and our "Python 3 Porting Guide"; in particular whether the commits<br>
are (a) a complete port to Python 3, (or Six in the toolkit), and (b)<br>
adequately tested,<br>
<br>
The discovery that led to this project idea was that despite porting<br>
to Python 3 we have seen some regressions that suggest that our<br>
porting was imprecise or hasty.<br>
<br>
The next point in the project idea recognises that we didn't have a<br>
good method of testing.<br>
