Stream: FoMM / Lean Together 2020

Topic: Lean Together


Rob Lewis (Dec 28 2019 at 20:53):

The last couple days are devoted to Lean/mathlib topics. We have a handful of talks planned, but also some open blocks of time for discussion, planning, etc. There are a few things on the lineup already: we should talk about and coordinate peoples' ongoing projects, discuss moving mathlib to 3.5c, speculate about Lean 4, etc. But please think about other topics you'd like to bring up. If you let us know here in advance, we can add them to the official plan.

I wrote a blog post about the meeting: https://xenaproject.wordpress.com/2020/01/14/lean-together-2020/

Why does @Sebastien Gouezel get an umlaut but @Johannes Hölzl doesn't? :stuck_out_tongue_wink:

Rob Lewis (Jan 14 2020 at 19:15):

(The opposite of their Zulip names, apparently...)

Kevin Buzzard (Jan 14 2020 at 19:16):

I believe that in German it's legitimate to replace the o-umlaut with an oe, but I don't think there's any such trick you can do in French. I just didn't know how to typeset an o umlaut but I copied the non-umlaut (umlaut's can't go on an e, it's something else I think?) from Gouezel's web pages ;-)

Diaeresis (which I apparently can't spell)

Kevin Buzzard (Jan 14 2020 at 19:18):

yeah that, I didn't know how to spell it ;-) I've added the umlaute.

Sebastian Ullrich (Jan 14 2020 at 19:29):

@Kevin Buzzard You forgot fixing the most famous of them all, Mjölnir!

Kevin Buzzard (Jan 14 2020 at 19:31):

ha ha I added it.

Patrick Massot (Jan 14 2020 at 20:53):

There is no umlaut in French, Sébastien has a tréma. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaeresis_(diacritic)

Sebastien Gouezel (Jan 14 2020 at 20:54):

Also, it's Sylvie, not Silvie.

Kevin Buzzard (Jan 14 2020 at 21:03):

Also, it's Sylvie, not Silvie.

Many thanks! Fixed in master.
