Topic: Mathcomp 2.0 vs 1.18

Hi, my group are interested to port our project (quite large) developed in MC 1.17 into newer MC, preferably 2.0. But since the analysis are currently missing for 2.0, we are hesitant about whether we should wait for 2.0 's development or precede with porting to 1.18 first? Basically, we are no sure of how difficult it would be to later port 1.18 into 2.0 (whenever its compatible analysis releases), since 2.0 is our ultimate goal.

Any input and advice are welcome! Thank you.

The difficulty for porting to mathcomp 2 depends on your projet, there are some insights in https://hal.science/hal-04225130v1/document

If you have not been creating your own hierarchies, it should be almost painless

As for mathcomp 1.18 it grows out of backports from mathcomp 2, so it can only get you closer

@Cruise Song is your project in the MC CI? It's often a good way to help others help you...

Thanks for your advice, but I am not very familiar with CI, is there any suggestion for how to put our project in the MC CI?

The first step for addition in CI is creating a Nix package (see e.g. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/231077 )
