Chicken is not shut out. It just means that WG2-conformant programs have to use "er-macro-transformer" explicitly. What happens if you don't use an explicit transformer is outside the scope of the standard, so Chicken can treat that as implicit ER and other implementations as something else. This is the advantage of standardizing a facade rather than what lies beneath. -- John Cowan [email protected] http://ccil.org/~cowan No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were: any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. --John Donne _______________________________________________ Scheme-reports mailing list [email protected] http://lists.scheme-reports.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/scheme-reports
