Erich, I both have an interest Boost.Accumulator and I have a mathematical-physics background. I'm not an expert in meta-programming, but, thanks to your help offer, it should not be a problem. Francesco On 04/12/2011 07:36 AM, Eric Niebler wrote:
I confess I haven't given this library the attention it needs. It's due to the fact that I have many competing demands for my time, and also because I'm not actually a statistician -- Matthias Troyer did that part, but I know he's busy, too -- so I don't really feel qualified to make certain changes. This is an uncomfortable position to be in, so I figured I'd ask for help. So, is there anybody with a mathematical bent and an interest in Boost.Accumulators who would like to help out with the backlog of bugs and patches to this library? I would stay on as assistant maintainer to help with the tricky meta-programming.
Gaetano, see below.

In this case, you would open a feature request on svn.boost.org ("New Ticket"), assign to me, and attach your patch. If it looks good, I'll merge it. Your patch should have docs and tests. Don't worry about formatting the docs. I can do that. I wouldn't ask you to set up the doc build chain; it's a headache.
Done.
(For those playing along at home, the ticket is here: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/4471)
Thanks. This needs documentation, though. Like I said, I don't care about formatting, just tell what what text you'd like to see inserted where in the docs and I'll do it.
Hi all, I see the ticket for the kahan accumulator:
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/4471
is still "open", do you need something else to be done?
I don't think you ever responded to my request to add the needed docs to the patch, did you?
