[Scilab-users] New ATOMS toolbox - what now?

[Claus Futtrup]

Hi there

I created an ATOMS toolbox for the CMA-ES optimization algorithm. You 
can find it here:

https://atoms.scilab.org/toolboxes/CMA-ES

Question 1: Status "This module is being packaged" ... How long shall I 
wait? I have waited 9 days so far.

During creation of this ATOMS toolbox I could not test in Scilab because 
Scilab will not load ATOMS (zip) package because of a missing 
DESCRIPTION file. Very irritating, and without much help, so I made one 
- but it still didn't work.

I uploaded the ATOMS toolbox even though strictly speaking I could not 
load it into Scilab. I was unable to test ... I wrote this bug report:

http://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13209

As far as I can see this bug report has gotten nowhere.

Someone please help me.

Most importantly, please help me finish "packing" the CMA-ES ATOMS 
package, so that I can load it into Scilab and test it (and then improve 
the package - e.g. with much better documentation).

I would like to add a good example to the help file (fully executable), 
explain the difference between functional and object-oriented execution, 
and I'd like to add some nice demos, e.g. of the entire BBOB test suite 
- that would be cool... but there's no point in doing this if the 
package is not up to Scilab code and/or cannot work 100%.

I need help.

/Claus
