Newsletter 9: Coordination/Tracking
Closed this issue · 21 comments
Feel free to suggest sections.
If you want to help writing the newsletter:
- grab one of the "🆓 free" sections by leaving a comment like "I'd like to work on {section_name_1} and {section_name_2}".
- Write a short overview:
- Use provided links as a starting point.
- Try to maintain a consistent style with the rest of the newsletter, please.
- Hard-wrap at 80 chars, please.
- Use third-person pronouns even if you write about your project updates.
- DM me on Discord or Telegram if there're any questions.
- Send a PR to the
sourcebranch (example: #75)- Mention this issue in your PR's description to link it all together.
I'm hoping to release this newsletter in the beginning of the next week, so a soft deadline for all section PRs is Sunday.

Final steps:
I'll take the For The Quest section again!
I'll take Amethyst 4 (https://azriel.im/will/2020/04/24/browsers-assemble/)!
@cdbattags note that Amethyst's section is supposed to be a list of items like https://rust-gamedev.github.io/posts/newsletter-008#amethyst
I'll take Citybound, A/B street and Scale :-) City sims are cool !
I'll take the Ludum Dare 46 games section!
💯 I'm good for Veloren, and I'll probably grab a few others tomorrow 👌
Actually, on second thought, can I reserve Godot + iced?
Heya, I'm super busy right now, but am asking in the Amethyst discord for help to write the content 📝.
@cdbattags If you'd like to make a start (even just for Will), that would be helpful.
I may spare Sunday evening to review / amend the Amethyst content.
I know it's not currently listed, but I could do something for realm.one by the end of this weekend :)
Taking Colony Genesis, Big AB Games, and ssshmup
Ugh, I'm so slow.
Taking "Measuring build timings with mathbench", "A tutorial on/in/about/with 3D graphics, Rust, Vulkan, ash", "Implementing a linear Quadtree in Rust", "Multiple ECS in my personal game project", "Simple 2Dcamera system for Rust with GGEZ", and "Symmetric Matrices & Triangle Numbers".
I'll take on usfx, iced, and asset_manager!
Taking on Amethyst games and library updates.
cc: @cdbattags
I'll take sarekt and the Godot section, if no-one else is picking those up.
Grabbing "Our backend – Technology, turbulence-goggles-rlua, and Valora
Picking up bracket-lib and dathos-game-engine to round off the list 😄
Yay, we're ready for the final PR! #138 ("Newsletter 9") - everyone is invited to review.
⏲️ Hope to merge this today +- at 17:00 UTC (in 10 hrs from now).

Many thanks to all contributors and reviewers! :)
Nice work on the coordination again! 👏🏻
To reduce workload towards the end of the month, maybe it's an idea to open up the new coordination issue straight after releasing a new newsletter? Then people can start adding news throughout the month.
I actually really like that idea, maybe have like a freeze date for when things can be added
Done, sorry for the delay.

@Wodann Well, the first step of the newsletter creation workflow (see this repo's readme) says
At the beginning of the month, a draft of the newsletter is created from a template.
so I was supposed to add a draft anyway for people to send PRs. If you think that creating an empty coordination issue will help, why not. I'll add an outline it in ~two weeks.
