Congratulations 🙂 I took a quick look at the list of accepted proposals and realized that your project, Cover the core of Ruby with RSpec[1] and Florian Groß’ (RSpec suite for Ruby implementations[2]) seem _very_ similar… Is this a quirk of the selection process or have you already talked about how to sort out the situation and avoid overlap?

The mentors discussed this quite a bit. I believe the hope is to have one person focus on the core language while the other handles the core API. Or there was talk of splitting on the core and the standard library. Another option was to have one student working on adding coverage and one focusing on combining all the splinter work that has been done in this area in the past. The important thing is that we would like to divide the work. James Edward G. II ---

The mentors already know about this and have spent quite a bit of time thinking about it AFAIK. 🙂 It’s not the first time this has happened either. I think it’ll work out pretty well. Oh, and it would be nice to get together into the same IRC channel or to sort everything out via mail. Whatever works best. 🙂 ---

Whatever works best. 🙂 I’m really excited to see these projects becoming a reality. If you need anything from the RSpec team to support this, please feel free to contact either the rspec-devel mailing list or me directly. Cheers, David ---

Whatever works best. 🙂 May I recommend #rubinius? since the projects are both at least titularly for rubinius. (and the JRuby guys an Ko1 hang out there too) ---
