Hello Andy and Mark,
Thanks for the review! There has actually been more progress since I pushed
that branch. I hit a point in the CPS-RTL stuff where I had trouble
because I didn't know how to do things (like mutable variables) in RTL. So
I've actually ported the compiler to GLIL in a branch on

Hi Noah,
A brief note to let you know that I rebased wip-rtl-cps, as wip-rtl
itself was rebased.
Cheers,
Andy

The push is complete. If I'm not mistaken, you should now see a wip-rtl-cps
branch with a Tree-IL-CPS compiler. The compiler is used in cps.test.
Please let me know if I did anything wrong.

Hello,
On Thu, Jan
I don't know much about language interfaces, but why not have these be
constants exported by libguile.so? Is there any reason for other languages
to have to make their own lists?
Thanks,
Noah

Hello,
I was just thinking about this, and I was wondering, can you hash an
arbitrary Guile object? And if so, what do you hash? (I mean, algorithms
like SHA-1 are defined on sequences of bits, as I understand it. So what
collection of bits do you hash?) And is the hash recursive? (I.e. is it an
Hello,
The RTL branch now has infrastructure for toplevel and module refs, which
is very exciting. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to use it. :-(
In particular, I've been looking at module/system/vm/rtl.scm, and there are
two things I don't understand about cache cells.
1. How do I
This has been said before, but I think the most important thing is for
people who are new to Guile to be able to see a list of mature,
well-maintained libraries (whatever that means), and tell the difference
between those and poorly-maintained or bitrotted libraries.
It would also be nice to have
Mark,
I agree with everything you said about dependencies. I think the real
solution is something like what you said - sharing code, but bundling.
One way to push that farther would be to distribute tarballs that include
the complete source of some libraries, and somehow making a combined build
