How will the Foundation structure its board, bylaws, and operations?
This is actually a number of questions, feel free to split up however you see fit!
- Who will be on the board of the foundation? Initially, and over time?
- What are the bylaws of the foundation?
- How will the foundation operate?
- How will the operations of the foundation be accessible to the community of maintainers?
If it's too early to answer these questions, then:
- What is the plan and rough timeline for deciding on the board structure, bylaws, and operating procedures?
I'm not sure there is anyone actively working on this crate, and fixing this bug probably requires non-trivial changes. You might consider using globset instead.
Oh, sorry about the noise :sweat_smile: It showed up in the "GitHub Explore" mailing-list "based on your public repository contributions".
Thanks for the pointer.
globset seems to have the same problem, Glob::new() takes a string. This works fine for Americans and on UTF-8 machines but make it impossible to pass valid Path values to it.
[edit: and globset doesn't have a dedicated issue tracker]
No, globset does not suffer from the same problem. globset does require valid UTF-8 for the pattern, but it's matching function can accept any path.

It might some day, but you can just file bugs against ripgrep with globset mentioned in the issue.
If you have a use case for specifying a pattern that isn't valid UTF-8, then I would certainly be happy to have a bug for that, but please provide a real example, because it's not actually clear what the intended semantics should be.
Also, the focus on "Americans" is completely unnecessary. UTF-8 isn't specific to Americans.
On a ISO-8859-15 system, I might want to match Glob::new(b"d\xE9cembre 2018 - *.jpg"). Or I might want to pass arguments from args_os() (without panicking on non-UTF-8 filenames) or clap.
I might also just want to build a pattern from an existing Path, for example to find rsync-style temp files (.<filename>.randomstring e.g. .cv_rémi.pdf.GV4H3). Path.file_name() correctly returns &OsStr which I can easily manipulate, but I can't feed it back to Glob::new().
Thanks for the example. I filed an issue and turned your example into code: https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/issues/1250
