State of DSP?

[ChrisRackauckas]

@RoyiAvital

It would be great to have a place to share code which isn’t validated to to the level of Package.

@RoyiAvital

The idea is to have centralized place to share code simple as that (Not to manage code, just to let other, Hi I have a specific function doing this and that, you may use it…).

@RoyiAvital

The need is for a centralized platform which Julia users can go and find and not only store in public (as GitHub).

This is a description of Github. Sure, Julia puts packages there. But most Git repos are just code placed on a centralized public platform for others to search for.

@ChrisRackauckas I appreciate your good intentions , but I find it annoying that you try to educate me on GitHub or Gist , without giving me the credit that I might just know about those and still aiming at something different.

By pointing out that every feature you described is part Github and its normal uses, it’s clear that if you did not mean to describe Github then the description is not complete. It sounds like you want something different, but I have no idea how what you’re thinking of is supposed to be different. I am curious to hear what a service would be, which is why I made the comparison for clarification. I was hoping that such a comparison to the current solution would bring out the missing details for how it’s supposed to be different.

BTW, the thread should probably be split at State of DSP? - #11 by TsurHerman post 11 (title Julia Code Exchange) since this is all off-topic from the original discussion.
