Vote: yes, conditional upon the reversion of procedure-equivalence to R5RS semantics Contact details: <[email protected]> Statement of interest: I've been a Lisp programmer since 2010. Scheme remains to my mind the most elegant and versatile dialect of Lisp (It is my "go-to" when I want to prototype an idea in a Lisp-y language), by virtue of its minimalism -- but this minimalism also weakens the language as a tool for serious software development. My hope for R7RS is that it will retain the simplicity of classical Scheme (Small) while becoming a practical language for real development work that is portable across implementations. (Large) Rationale: R7RS Small is a nice improvement over R5RS, not too bulky and a good starting place for work on the Large language. I approve. — dpk. _______________________________________________ Scheme-reports mailing list [email protected] http://lists.scheme-reports.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/scheme-reports
