Join rosetta-rs?

[epage]

I've been maintaining several benchmark repos based off of template-benchmarks-rs. I've noticed there are several other benchmark repos that are hard to know about.

I've created rosetta-rs org as a place for these repos if the authors so choose to

• Increase discoverability
• Improve bus factor

See the meta repo for more details

Interested in collaborating?

Sorry for the delay in responding. I'm not uninterested in joining a dedicated org, but I'm not sold on the value proposition:

Increase discoverability

Instead of moving repositories under a shared org, it seems like this could be accomplished by just listing and linking. There are already plenty of "awesome rust crates" repos, though I agree that many of them fail to back up recommendations with hard data. What discoverability advantages would a shared org have over listing and linking?

Improve bus factor

I like the idea of improving the bus factor, and I see how an org can help with that. However, bus factor isn't really that much of a concern to me. Even in the worst case scenario, someone could fork the repo and continue working on it.

Interested in collaborating?

Yes! I think that there's potential for some valuable collaborative work here. Here are some ideas that sound appealing to me:

• Pooling development resources to foster cross-collaboration and stimulate investment into existing benchmark repos.
• Networking developers together to accurately grade the quality of benchmark data. Kind of like a web of trust for hard numbers.
• Consolidating data to make it more useful and accessible. Having a standard format for benchmark data could enable users to explore that information through a friendly interface with quality visualization.

These ideas raise a lot of additional questions, but pursuing some of them sounds exciting and beneficial for the community. Feel free to get in touch directly (via email, dm, or however else) if you'd like to chat some more. I'm going to close this issue for now and if we continue the discussion elsewhere (e.g. in the rosetta-rs repo) I'll link that conversation from here.
