Bruce Mitchener@Dekker1 If I have some early Rust bindings for Chuffed, I think they might make sense to put in the chuffed organization ... thoughts?
Jip J. Dekker@waywardmonkeys Although I would be happy with Chuffed bindings in Rust, I think we would need them to be in a relatively complete state before we would put them publicly in the chuffed organisation. We are lacking on development time, so we would need to know that it would be supportable before we can make it part of the organisation.
@Dekker1 I understand … and hopefully will have them doing something useful by early next week (busy schedule). It feels like these solvers are often in a difficult place with respect to using them… also been looking at gecode, libpcp, and others.
@waywardmonkeys yes, it’s often hard to balance research and software development. Although I don’t want to give the impression that no developing is happening at the moment. It’s really that we are thinking about some larger revamping of chuffed so it is hard to make time for these type of engineering tasks at the same time.
@Dekker1 I understand! I work with a company that needs constraint solving and so I am trying to figure out how to piece things together, how to use the resources I have to do the best. Might want to talk to you or others in a week or two after more investigation.
