Subject[Csnd-dev] any parser/compiler/testing tasks or projects?
Greetings!

My schedule has settled down again, and I'm looking to get back into hacking on the compiler a little bit.  I didn't see anything standing out in the github issues, so I thought I'd ask here.  Are there any short to medium term projects related to the parser, compiler, or testing in general that could use a set of hands?

All the best,
Scott

Hi Scott,

thanks for this, and welcome back.

Two things come to mind:

1) there was a request here for a break statement - a continue one could also be useful.

2) There is an open bug with udos in the tracker, however hlolli seems to think it will be fixed in his PR. This one is a bit of showstopper so we need to see to it before release.

Otherwise we're looking good for 7.0

Oh, that's great!  I'll work on putting in break and continue statements.

Thanks Victor,
Scott
