Collaboration?

[tecosaur]

Hello there!

I started on https://github.com/tecosaur/Voting.jl a ~year and a half ago, would you be interested in collaborating?

Hello!

Thanks for stumbling across my repo. I think I have a similar story. I started this project about a year and a half ago. Just a quick disclaimer: rank choice voting systems are not my expertise. Its just a topic that piqued my interest.

Yeah. I would be interested in collaborating at some point. Let me finish a few projects and take some time to compare the repos. Maybe one design is better than the other, or maybe there is a third hybrid that is superior to the two components. Maybe they are just different tradeoffs. I'll see if I can get a lay of the land.

Update

I gave your repo a cursory look and there is a lot of overlap in the basic approach and organization. It seems like there would be potential to integrate the packages.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! Sounds like we indeed came from the same place, I think I just started reading about voting systems at some point and was disappointed there seemed to be no easy way to try them out and compare in practice.

I've only taken a glance at your work, but I see a few nice overlaps. Currently, I like the look of:

• You having any docs at all 😅 🙈
• My Ballot and Result types + API
• Your satisfies methods that can be applied to particular elections
• Your methods that I haven't implemented
• The methods I've implemented, that you have not

If you're interested in realtime chat I'm around on the Julia Discourse and Zulip as Timothy (same avatar as here).
