Hackathon update ::: ## Notes ## NiFreeze RR RR inquiry under consideration by editors. ### Out-of-order releases Problem: User finds bug in old series, cannot conveniently upgrade to latest. The bug fix violates patch-release rules. For LTS, we could create a 20.3.0 to indicate incompatibility, but the niworkflows LTS is 1.3.10, and 1.4.0 exists. Specific patch: https://github.com/nipreps/niworkflows/pull/929/files * Result: Check in with Lea (half-pipe) about splash damage. ### Treat warnings as errors across NiPreps Had been [succesfully added to `NiFreeze`](https://github.com/nipreps/nifreeze/pull/40); some other variants (e.g. see [mriqc/comment](https://github.com/nipreps/mriqc/pull/1370#issuecomment-2587318967) and [nireports/comment](https://github.com/nipreps/nireports/pull/157#issuecomment-2652495230)) had been tried for [`MRIQC`](https://github.com/nipreps/mriqc/pull/1370) and [`Nireports`](https://github.com/nipreps/nireports/pull/157): the successful variant seems to be the one used for `NiFreeze`. Current issues: - `MRIQC`: failing due to unrelated reasons. Unsure if once that is solverd the fact that things run using a Docker image will allow the warning to error solution work. - `Nireports`: the solution although being version-agnostic, does not work for one of the builds (`Python 3.9 min`); some warnings that are fixed in a generic way persist on `Python 3.9 min`. See [nireports/comment](https://github.com/nipreps/nireports/pull/157#issuecomment-2693139896). ### FreeSurfer BIDS current: sub-X_ses-Y desired: sub-X/ses-Y https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-specification/issues/1130 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tFRNumQyIgjXBNC3brFDLO9FaikjL84noxK6Om-Ctik/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.gjdgxs # fMRIPrep stats First migas-enabled release: 23.0 First date:
