Astropy Affiliated Package Review #117

Closed astrofrog closed 7 years ago

astrofrog commented 7 years ago

This package has been re-reviewed by the Astropy coordination committee in relation to the Astropy affiliated package ecosystem.

We have adopted a review process for affiliated package that includes assigning quantitative ‘scores’ (red/orange/green) for different categories of review. You can read up more about this process here. (This document, currently in Google Docs, will be moved to the documentation in the near future.) For each of the categories below we have listed the score and have included some comments when the score is not green.

There are no automated tests of actual interaction with DS9. This might be difficult to do, but we think it would be important to see if this can be done (there are ways of starting up GUI programs in headless VMs and simulating mouse clicks

Summary/Decision: Things are looking good! There are a few areas where things could be improved as described above. However, these aren't critical and this package still meets the criteria to be an affiliated package. Keep up the good work!

If you agree with the above review, please feel free to close this issue. If you have any follow-up questions or disagree with any of the comments above, leave a comment and we can discuss it here. At any point in future you can request a re-review of the package if you believe any of the scores should be updated - contact the coordination committee, and we’ll do a new review. Note that we are in the process of redesigning the http://affiliated.astropy.org page to show these scores (but not the comments). Finally, please keep the title of this issue as-is (“Astropy Affiliated Package Review”) to make it easy to search for affiliated package reviews in future.
