Re: Updating ruby package guideline to only build gems and extensions once

I took the liberty of updating them on my personal space [2]. If there is no objection, then I would like to push the changes to the main page. I've some a couple of tests, especially to check de- duplication, native extensions and reproducibility with the new proposal. They passed for all items of my test set. All of them also properly removed things where I previously had other de-duplication rm calls. Native extensions still work properly while not preserving intermediate object files in our packages for no reason. Overall the changes look good and very functional. The wiki proposal looks solid. A bit unfortunate that ruby requires all that shizzle, but welp, definitively better this way compared to not doing those cleanups. Thumbs up from me 👍 Cheers, Levente OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature
New community wide idea pool
Hello everyone, Several times in the past I was thinking about a better and more central way to keep track of ideas and suggestions. We've encountered multiple times that good ideas got lost because we never properly kept track of them and only recognized after coming up with the very same idea much later. I'd like to address this issue and setup an actual community-wide place for this [0]. The GitLab repository is an incubating idea pool useful to keep track of early stage suggestions and brainstorming before they get picked up and implemented eventually. We will use an issue template [1] and various labels to classify ideas with rough t-shirt sized estimates. This will help volunteers to look out for ideas they would be interesting to invest time on.
