Hello everyone,
In light of the recent announcement by Felix and some people's concerns that
the project may get into a bit of a slump with a lack of a single Benevolent
Dictator, I decided that it would be a good idea to organize a Hackathon.
This will be an excellent opportunity for the

I propose to hold the hackathon on the weekend of 22-23 February. Suggestions
of different dates are welcome.
Of course, the weekend is 23-24 February. However, anyone wanting to
start on the 22nd is welcome to do so :)
Cheers,

is it possible to get a list of all eggs which do not currently have
their documentation in the wiki?
then we could start migrating the doc to the wiki.
Yeah, it's easy. Just look through the Eggs Unlimited page and

This is perhaps a different concern, but I wonder if there would be value in

stricter standard of documentation.
Why do you want to make a distinction?

Hi,
This might be a stupid question,
but would someone help me understand the following eval example?
I was expecting to get 1.
You're evaluating (car (1 2 3))
You want to be evaluating (car (list 1 2 3)) or (car (quote (1 2 3)))

How about this?
(define a 'values)

I'd like to evaluate (values '(1 2 3) '#(4 5 6))
using eval, a and b.
More of the same:
(eval (cons a (map (cut list 'quote ) b)))
