Hi Miller,
great to see Pd 0.52 approaching!
Here's a list of my open PRs: https://github.com/pulls?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+author%3ASpacechild1+archived%3...
I made sure that they all apply cleanly.
---
Some are trivial:
* https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/769
* https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/764
---
Others need more discussion:
* https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/630
* https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/849
---
Here are some simple feature PRs:
* [goprect( method to dynamically change the GOP rect: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/627
* allow to receive large UDP packets: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/1122
* [clone]: allow resizing and always have at least one inlet: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/1069
* "-open-with-args" command line option: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/1064
---
These are bit larger, but still reasonable (at least I like to think so :-)
* new [list store] methods: [set(, [insert(, [delete(, [send(: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/594
* [poly]: allow resizing, dynamically set note stealing, sustain pedal mode: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/661
* new [list] methods: [list foreach], [list join] and [list unjoin]: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/595
---
Finally, this one would make me very happy: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/1117
I would definitely see this as a temporary solution. After Gem and ophelia (who else?) have adapted their macOS input handling code, the option could be removed entirely.
Cheers,
Christof

To Pd dev - I'm going to try to get the next Pd release (0.52) out over the next month or two. My personal priorities for this release would be putting in a message backtrace mechanism (by overriding canvas_connect and pd_bind to go through small proxy objects; this will have to be done at load time I think) and to go back and try to figure out how to do tooltips without adding cruft to the inlet structure. (There's an ancient source-patch to provide tooltips by Chris McCormichadn Guenter Geiger that I plan to start with - https://sourceforge.net/p/pure-data/patches/264/).
Before doing that I want to do some reorganizing - in porting Pd to FreeRTOS (so I can run it on an Espressif LyraT board, which I think takes only about 10 or 20% of the current that a Pi needs) I found out that I had to move a few functions from one file to another.
This might break some PRs, so... first of all would be to identify whatever PRs are ready to merge so I can do that before I make incompatible changes. Of course "stable development branch" first... then Dan's soundfile updates... then what?
PS more ideas of mine (among many): hot-reloading externs via a message to Pd use a "unix binding" socket between Pd and pd-gui instead of localhost generalize number/symbol box to allow displaying entire messages or lists
