@mflatt Why is scribble/acmart merged into the main repo?

@mflatt Or rather, why on earth does it use maketitle
?

@leif there was an extensive discussion including discussion of maketitle

(As opposed to the already existing one on the package server: https://github.com/fare/acmart )

@samth Okay, link?

on the pull request

also, I think “NO!!!” is not a good way to respond to a commit, even if you don’t like the approach


“ctrl-f maketitle” on that page works for me

No shit sam

But there is no explanation as to why its there.


I wouldn’t say “extensive discussion”,

but DVH couldn’t figure out how to insert it automatically. That’s why it’s there

I meant there was extensive discussion of the PR as a whole, including some discussion of maketitle
in particular

Yes, maketitle
was mentioned. But about all I could find is:

I think that would be a mess. The better thing would be to automatically insert maketitle at the right point, but I couldn't figure out how to do it.

But I mean, there already is a scribble/acmart implementation that clearly doesn’t need an explicit maketitle.

well, i suggest submitting a PR with the correct way to do it, then

I’m sure David would happy

Fine

that is acceptable.
