o(^.^o)(o^.^)o d(^_^)b I propose that we start to consider getting things up to 1.x. I'm sure a lot of people have allergies to stuff with version numbers starting in zeroes.
Can we get a timeframe to target for a 1.x? Goals for 1.x? I assume a few months at the minimum so that we can actually start to see how it's like to work with sweet-expressions et al. What do we need for an official 1.x, aside from some experience working with the syntax? I assume that we would like to have a website on or before 1.x that lets users sweeten, unsweeten, and run a scheme with sweet-expressions. To be honest, I think BiwaScheme is "not bad" - looking at the example code, it seems that the terminal on biwascheme.org simply passes a continuation to process each line entered into the terminal. As a simplifying assumption, for sweet-Biwa we might modify this terminal so that it ends an expression on an empty line (the BiwaScheme.org version counts the number of ( ) to see if they balance - if they do, then it passes the expression to the eval). We can then wrap the string into a special "portlike" object that is a mutable tuple of the string and an index into it, and write my-peek-char and my-read-char to manipulate that tuple. If BiwaScheme doesn't have cond-expand we can just preprocess src/kernel.scm for it (that's why cond-expand is specified the way it is: it is supposed to be useable only on the top-level, unless you know that you are in a Scheme that allows it to be used nested - and if you know, then you're already in a cond-expand on the top-level).
