Question thread #23

It's time for another question thread!

The rules:

- You may ask any dev-related question you have in a comment. (It doesn't even need to be about Dreamwidth, although if it involves a language/library/framework/database Dreamwidth doesn't use, you will probably get answers pointing that out and suggesting a better place to ask.)
- You may also answer any question, using the guidelines given in To Answer, Or Not To Answer and in this comment thread.

Also, I'm curious: if you have a coding blog, would you like links to recent entries rounded up on dw_dev? If so (no obligation), feel free to comment with links and someone will compile them and post a new entry here.

Weirdly, we did not have a lot of people take us up on it! (A few, but not many.) I think people are just really hesitant to put themselves forward and say "yes, I would like this thing, thank you," and I bet there's a bit of impostor syndrome going on as well ("but I haven't done anything to DESERVE this thing").

Next time I will probably do a thing like "here are two book titles relevant to DW, pick one of the two and I will send it to you", and then ask everyone who submits a patch during $timeperiod to give me their addresses...
