Bruno P. Kinoshita commented on RNG-37: --------------------------------------- Hi [~cur4so] >but it's almost a week has past. Any updates? As the project is maintained by volunteers, it is normal that some issues have a long delay to have a response. This delay may be hours, days, weeks, or months. Depends mostly on the schedule of each volunteer. I was on vacation with limited Internet for the past three and half weeks, coming back today, and first reviewing things at $work, then seeing family/friends, re-organizing life, and only then going to have fun again as a volunteer with Open Source. So don't feel bad to bump issues if there's no activity, but don't expect a response as fast as in projects where we have a maintainer being paid to work and reply on issues :-) [~erans] has managed most issues in math and rng. I will try to review the pull request this week, but without spending much time on the actual implementation as I'm not familiar with the algorithm or its use cases. I will look at the points Giles pointed before, and the normal ASF standards (test regressions, code style, etc).
