Since SRFI 111 has been in draft for two months and discussed (not much, I admit) on the SRFI 111 mailing list, I rule this comment to be untimely. > Even though it's possible for individual programmers to rename library > identifiers, I think that reading others' code is likely to be improved > if standard names are chosen so that they would be used in their > original form as much as possible. I agree with this in principle. In this particular case, I thought (and nobody objected) that "the unanimous voice of Racket, Gambit, SISC, and Chez" to quote the SRFI) trumps systematic names. Chicken supports both, which leaves only MIT and Scheme48, neither of which uses the names you suggest either. -- Do what you will, John Cowan this Life's a Fiction [email protected] And is made up of http://www.ccil.org/~cowan Contradiction. --William Blake _______________________________________________ Scheme-reports mailing list [email protected] http://lists.scheme-reports.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/scheme-reports
