Hi all, Just a few comments about this SLEP from a contributor and user of the library :).
I think it is important for users to be able to quickly and easily know/learn which arguments should be keyword arguments when they use scikit-learn. As a user, I do not want to have to double check each time I use a function the arguments that should be keyword arguments. Hence the following sentence of the SLEP "the decision for these methods should be the same throughout the library in order to keep a consistent interface to the user" is very important to me. Also how is this going to be rendered by sphinx in the doc? (before numpydoc supports section for parameters) Thanks, Albert On Mon, Sep 16, 2019 at 9:33 PM Gael Varoquaux < gael.varoqu...@normalesup.org> wrote: > On Mon, Sep 16, 2019 at 11:28:57PM +1000, Joel Nothman wrote: > > That is, we could consider this resolved after 14 votes in favour. > > > So far, if I've interpreted correctly: > > > +1 (adrin, nicolas, hanmin, joel, guillaume, jeremie, thomas, vlad, > roman) = 9. > > > I've not understood a clear position from Alex.
