Hi all!
We just had the meeting and here are the MoM:
- We dicussed the Ada DevRoom in FOSDEM, the participation/interest of the public and the organisational aspects of it. The videos and slides are available in the page for everybody to watch and share!
- The next edition of the Ada Developers Workshop is live! The website has information on the deadlines and timeline. It will take place on the 13th of June in France as part of the wider AEiC conference. We are looking to lower the cost of participation just like last year, so stay tuned.
- You can already submit proposals to present during the workshop!
- A formal announcement will be done shortly!
- Google Summer of Code has announced the different projects that are participating. Please, take a look at this forum thread ([GSoC 2025] Ada's participation?) to see how you can participate as a contributor or as a mentour. There are some projects where Ada can be useful!
- The list of participating projects can be found here
- I am working towards creating a summary of the changes that have taken place for the next release of GCC, v15. I will keep you updated on this.
- @mosteo is asking people to test the last Release Candidate of Alire to test the new features and find any issues that may have slipped. The release of Alire v2.1 should be taking place quite soon, so do not wait!
- @AJ-Ianozi presented his card based library and set of games during the meetup. The code can be found in his github repository.
- @JC001 showcased his cards library present as part of the PragmARC componets and showcased a couple of games programed in Ada_GUI.
- @streaksu informed the community that the Ironclad project may start giving out some bounties towards further development of the OS, keep an eye on it and the community section/MLs and chatrooms of the project!
- @simonjwright created Ada_Caser, a library built on top of libadalang in order to get automatic casing when using GNATformat. It is still not production ready but it should already work and feedback is welcomed!
Thank you to all that participated in this Monthly Meetup! Best regards,
Fer
