Looking for help maintaining parser-c!

See the blog post on the Rust User's forum for more information.

I'd be interested. Is there a dedicated communication channel (IRC, gitter, slack) you want to use?

[sanxiyn]

I want to help. What would be some useful tasks for me to do?

@birkenfeld @sanxiyn Thank you both! The easiest solution for me to set up was a Gitter room, so I created one and added its badge to the repo: https://gitter.im/parser-c/Lobby

@sanxiyn I'll flesh out more directed/pressing issues and share them in this thread. #3 is a very straightforward task that might be a good introduction to the codebase.

The most high-value task to tackle is analyzing language-c's "test" folder (see https://github.com/tcr/parser-c/tree/master/reference/test) and planning how we can bring this over to the Rust crate. Most of it can be reused wholesale, like the C tests, but there's some support code written in Haskell we may need to port, either with Corollary or manually.

I'll detail some other tasks here shortly.
