Dear Unicon Group,
Happy New Year!
Unicon Version 12 is nearing its public beta period. The major new language
feature, concurrent threads, is working pretty well on Linux and
Solaris, and the effort to port threads to Windows and Mac OSX has made
progress over the winter break. The initial release of concurrency
facilities will be easy to use and offer good performance, but we expect to
be adding features and refining this part of the language awhile over
multiple releases, as was the case for 2D and 3D graphics, and networking.
Version 12 also has significant contributions in the area of 3D graphics
libraries and tools, and many smaller improvements that have accumulated
over the past
months.
Unicon has benefited tremendously since its beginning from user feedback and
contributions. We remain interested in partnering with you to identify new
improvements, finish ongoing feature requests, fix bugs in the
implementation, and undertake new research projects related to Unicon. I
would love to hear ideas on how to better facilitate user contributions to
the libraries and example programs, and I know there are several significant
pieces of software written in Unicon that might benefit from the wider
exposure that comes from being part of the language distribution, so if you
have any useful code to share, please consider it.
Cheers,
Clint
