Re: New logo and website design proposal

this is very beautiful!  The drawings are very pretty and friendly.

I would suggest not to show too much code (like a full screenshot of an
Emacs session), but maybe just a little bit in friendly colours, about
as short as the example code on http://ruby-lang.org.

[[The “G” in the logo is very round (presumably to better fit the round
parentheses), as is the “e”.  I find that the maximum gap between the
“G” and the “u” is a little wide because of that, but that’s just
nitpicking.]]

I wished more project logos and websites received such a pretty and
effective overhaul as this!

Thank you!

Slow compile times on master

2015-09-16 Thread Tristan Colgate
Hi All,
  I thought I'd see how things are looking on master (great to see work is
still progressing toward 2.2). I just wanted to check that the compile
times I've been seeing are to be expected. My (pretty weedy) laptop took
over a day to build one it hit building the scms. guile-snmp took a good
minute or so to build the code for the shell (it's really pretty tiny).
  Is this expected at the minute? or more likely to be a problem with
cacheing.
  Anyway, thanks all for the great work on guile. guile-snmp pulls off some
pretty gnarly tricks with dynamic symbol lookup and it's all kept on
working since 1.8 without breaking,which is pretty darned cool.
