In other words, vanilla GitHub issue search does address Raymond's request?


Given that github search is unlikely to be able to search "our
voluminous history of already evaluated and decided feature requests" on
b.p.o then it probably doesn't.

Besides, I spent about two minutes playing with github's filter/search,
not long enough to really test its capabilities and limitations.



I've spent a couple of years playing with GitHub's filter/search on much 
smaller projects than CPython and I find its search woefully inadequate 
compared to bpo.


But I know some people find it easier, so I'll probably rely on them to 
do the history searches for me after we switch.


Cheers,

[python-committers] Tooling built around historical record of core devs

2019-09-12 Thread Brett Cannon
A couple months ago I generated a canonical, historical record of people
who have been core developers at
https://github.com/python/voters/blob/master/python-core.toml. The goal was
for that list to feed into the devguide for the public record of who has
been a core dev as well has to help calculate who has been active for
voting purposes. Both are now done.

https://devguide.python.org/developers/ has been updated to use a CSV
generated from the python-core.toml file using code found in that
repository. This should make maintaining that page in the devguide much
easier and make it complete.

In the voters repo I have also written code for validating the data in
python-core.toml (which I hope to make into a GitHub action at some point
to act as a check against PRs), a command to calculate who has authored or
committed a change to CPython in the past two years to be classified as
active, and code to generate a voter roll from that active contributor
data. I am also hoping to help automate the adding/revoking permissions to
at least GitHub, if not also b.p.o and discuss.python.org (this is why it's
important you fill that information in python-core.toml).

And in case anyone is curious, as of today there are currently 76 out of
166 people who have contributed in the past two years and thus are
currently considered active.
