Yoshikoder

What’s new with the Yoshikoder?

A little bit of infrastructure

OK.  About the transparency thing.  There’s now a proper place to send bug reports and feature requests for the Yoshikoder.  I had considered using the many options available from Sourceforge, but plumped for something that was much simpler, arguably more elegant, and most importantly: blue.

For those of you unfamiliar with all this sort of thing, here’s how it works:  

You can ‘make a ticket’ in order to request a feature in a future version of the Yoshikoder or to report a bug you’ve found in a current one.

Tickets are not meant to be used as support requests (and I’ll delete them heartlessly if they are).  For now you can email me directly for that.

A really good bug report ticket tells me exactly how to replicate the bug you found, step by step in a minimal example.  A really good feature request ticket states in detail what your feature does and gives an idea about how it might look in the interface.

A final note about the terminology: Tickets are new when they’ve been proposed, open when I’ve started work on them, resolved when I think I’ve finished, on hold when I’ve put them on the back-burner, and invalid when I can’t replicate the bug or don’t want to implement the feature.
