Summary: Review Request: ScientificPython - a collection of Python modules that are useful for scientific computing https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=220766 ------- Additional Comments From jspaleta@xxxxxxxxx 2006-12-28 12:58 EST ------- (In reply to comment #8) > Or perhaps document it somewhere in the fedoraproject.org/wiki :) > Since in the /usr/share/doc/ScientificPython-mpi-2.6/README.MPI, it states,> > The module Scientific.MPI is documented in the ScientificPython > manual.

No, I'm not thrilled at using the wiki as the primary source of information. If you want to make a scientific computing wiki section that provides more expansive information across the spectrum of available software tools... go right ahead. But my primary concern is to provide the necessary information in the packaging documentation for this package. Other packages already use README.Fedora files to document Fedora specific changes. If you have suggestions on what I should be including in a README.Fedora file, I'll do that. But I'm not going to try to divide my time between the package CVS and the wiki for package specific documentation. Then > /usr/share/doc/ScientificPython-mpi-2.6/README.MPI might be useless, afterwards > /usr/share/doc/ScientificPython-mpi-2.6/impipython could be at /usr/bin/impipython No impipython cannot be in /usr/bin/ because you still have to set the number of processors to use with mpirun by hand. There is no way around it, the script is clearly a trivial reference script. I'm not going to work on enhancing this script into a generally useful executable as part of downstream packaging activity. > > What do you think ? > Since, I'm concerned too with scientific packages at Fedora, possibly we could > gather some packagers (scientific packages) to document their changes during > packaging on the wiki. > > http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/SIGs/SciTech > We already have SciTech SIG, we could bring it to life, I'm not interested in participating in any coordinated SIG activities at this point. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
