# NOTES
- Dev meeting *IS NOT* a decision making place. All decisions should be done at the bug tracker.
- Dev meeting is a place we can ask Matz, nobu, nurse and other developers directly.
- Matz is a very busy person. Take this opportunity to ask him. If you can not attend, other attendees can ask instead of you (if attendees can understand your issue).
- We will write a log about discussion to a file or to each ticket in English.
- All activities are best-effort (keep in mind that most of us are volunteer developers).
- The date, time and place is scheduled according to when/where we can reserve Matz's time.
# Agenda
## Next dev-meeting
## About 2.6 timeframe
## Carry-over from previous meeting(s)
- [Bug #14887] Array#delete_if does not use #delete (shyouhei)
- Is it by design, or a bug?
- [Feature #13050] Readline: expose rl_completion_quote_character variable (nobu)
- [Feature #14850] Add official API for setting timezone on Time (nobu)

- [Feature #14916] Proposal to add Array#=== (aycabta)
- [Feature #14877] Calculate age in Date class (nobu)

## From Attendees
(will be edited later)
(if you have a write access permission, please list directly)
- [Feature #5446] at_fork callback API (eregon) Can we get approval for introducing this? It is solving a real-world issue, in a more reliable way than the various hacks in most Ruby servers.
- [Feature #11258] add 'x' mode character for O_EXCL (kazu)
- [Misc #14907] io.c: do not close inherited FDs by default (akr)
- [Feature #14973] Proposal of percent literal to expand Hash (aycabta)
## From non-attendees
- [Feature #14717] thread: allow disabling preempt (normalperson)
- [Feature #11076] Enumerable method count_by (baweaver)
As mentioned in the discussion, Nobu was kind enough to update this to work with current master for Ruby: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/compare/trunk...nobu:feature/11076-Enumerable%23count_by
As the code is already written I believe it would be an ideal target for 2.6 as a quick win on an often requested feature.
* [Feature #14954] Add :wait option to RubyVM::MJIT.pause (k0kubun)
* Since it's not released even in preview2 yet, is it okay to change the behavior?
* Is there any objection for having the option or the option name?
- (baweaver)
* [Feature #14869] Proposal to add Hash#=== (nobu)
* [Feature #14916] Proposal to add Array#=== (aycabta)
* [Feature #14912] Introduce pattern matching syntax
I believe that these three items are related, and personally I could do a lot of very interesting things with `Array#===` and `Hash#===` that would get us exceptionally close to features discussed in [Feature #14709]
This to say I would second the inclusion of the first two items as they relate to the third and fourth. It would give Ruby an exceptional amount of power.
- [Feature #14759] [PATCH] set M_ARENA_MAX for glibc malloc (sam.saffron)
I would also very much like to see it backported 2.4 and 2.5. It is of enormous value to the ecosystem
- [Feature #14736] Thread selector for flexible cooperative fiber based concurrency (ioquatix)
- [Feature #14739] Improve fiber yield/resume performance (ioquatix)
* [Bug #14968] io.c: make all pipes nonblocking by default (normalperson)
* [Misc #14937] timer-thread elimination depends on [Bug #14968] (normalperson)
- [Feature #14944] Support optional inherit argument for Module#method_defined? (jeremyevans0)
