@leif the bibliography links in the super 8 paper are broken — clicking a citation jumps to the first page. https://www2.ccs.neu.edu/racket/pubs/icfp17-acf.pdf

is it acceptable etiquette to create two posts on Racket users and dev email lists about the same thing or to alert users about a topic on dev email list? I believe the dev email list is low traffic so I was thinking to alert interested users to check the other list but didn’t want to seem spammy.

@zeeshanlakhani @leif the problem seems to be, the section header for the Bib / References isn’t a valid target for hyperref

1. if I add a \section{Foo} just after the bibliography, links work

1. if I change the bibliography from \Ssectionstarx{Bibliography} to \Ssection{Bibliography} (in the generated TeX), then links work

oh, interesting.

Adding \phantomsection to \Sectionstarx works … setting up a PR now but I’m not going to test it now

@ben thanks for all the work

@ben Interesting and good catch.

Thanks.

Did you already post a push to fix it?

@abmclin I think most of the people on the dev mailing list are also on the users mailing list so just posting to users will get everyone. (If that is what you’re going for.)

Although I personally think posting a link to the dev list to the users list conversation would be fine.

(Although I am just one person. :wink: )

Ha ok, my reasoning had been that work on package system was more of a developer thing than general users. I’ll post to the users list and link to the dev list post.

@abmclin maybe a #pkg channel would be worth adding to the slack?

sure, I would like that. There’ll certainly be a need for at length discussions about ideas for improving the package system.

who should I petition for adding the channel?

@stamourv dost thou hath channel create powers?

it would work as a good place for announcing new packages or talking about community packages too

Agreed

and looks like our wish has been granted

GOTO #pkg

@notjack: Doesn’t everyone?

@stamourv huh, I guess I just assumed I wouldn’t be able to

Tested, anyone can make a channel. Will keep that in mind :p

wow, same picture as always

@ben I’m starting to think there are only four pictures of Matthew on the internet…
