[ruby-core:118488] [Ruby master Misc#20574] DevMeeting-2024-07-11

Issue #20574 has been updated by byroot (Jean Boussier).


* [Feature #20594] A new String method to append bytes while preserving encoding (byroot)
  * When working with binary (messagepack, protobuf) or mixed encoding protocols (Redis, Memcached, etc), it's common to assemble string with different encodings.
  * Typical example is to have a `BINARY` buffer and assemble some `UTF-8` strings in it.
  * In such cases `Encoding::ASCII_8BIT` is very inconvenient as it will do encoding negociation.
  * I propose a `String#byteconcat` method that appends string content while preserving the left hand side encoding.
  * The logical signature would be to behave like `String#concat` (take varg args, accept String or Integer, return `self`)
  * YJIT team is concerned about the performance implication of varargs, and would prefer a single argument.

# The next dev meeting

**Date: 2024/07/11 13:00-17:00** (JST)
Log: *TBD*

- 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 record of the discussion in the 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 of the meeting are scheduled according to when/where we can reserve Matz's time.
- *DO NOT* discuss then on this ticket, please.

# Call for agenda items

If you have a ticket that you want matz and committers to discuss, please post it into this ticket in the following format:

```
* [Ticket ref] Ticket title (your name)
  * Comment (A summary of the ticket, why you put this ticket here, what point should be discussed, etc.)
```

Example:

```
* [Feature #14609] `Kernel#p` without args shows the receiver (ko1)
  * I feel this feature is very useful and some people say :+1: so let discuss this feature.
```

- It is recommended to add a comment by 2024/07/08. We hold a preparatory meeting to create an agenda a few days before the dev-meeting.
- The format is strict.  We'll use [this script to automatically create an markdown-style agenda](https://gist.github.com/mame/b0390509ce1491b43610b9ebb665eb86).  We may ignore a comment that does not follow the format.
- Your comment is mandatory. We cannot read all discussion of the ticket in a limited time. We appreciate it if you could write a short summary and update from a previous discussion.
