Hey folks, I've updated the NEWS as best I could for happenings between 1.9.0 and 1.9.1. They're notable to us, but fortunately many of the changes since the last release are just changes to 1.9 code that won't be visible to a 1.8 user. Anyway, check the NEWS, or if you're too lazy and everything goes well, just check your inbox tomorrow.
I should apologize for lack of responsiveness over the last couple weeks. I started poking at uniform vectors, and that code is the badness. It's arrays and generalized vectors and uniform vectors and bitvectors and bytevectors and normal vectors &c &c, and instead of there being some kind of orthogonal exposition of the types, *all of the code calls each other*. It's nutty. Trying to straighten out the mess, the mess pulled me in instead, a big open parenthesis... I have a branch working more or less, but it won't be ready for review for another week or so. Did I mention that the code makes the pun "ra" for "array", apparently to conserve electrons? Anyway, distcheck passes, so Ludovic if you don't mind, the repo seems to be in a releasable state. Let me know if I can help in any other way; I'll be working but online tomorrow should you need me. Cheers, Andy -- http://wingolog.org/
