Hi Atila, I just saw your "due to lack of interest" post about this thread. Don't be disenheartened. I'm quite interested in your effort. I don't have a heap of time to invest in this, but I wanted to get back to learning maru again and doing a similar thing at some stage, too. For me, the last time I tried, it was just too difficult because I didn't know enough LISP/scheme. Now I know a *lot* more, but I just need to get some chunks of time to work on learning it better (possibly). So, suffice to say I'm very happy there are others working on the pedagogical aspects of maru. Thank you! Please don't think your efforts are in vain.

Re: [fonc] maru hg-to-git mirror on github
> i've created a conversion of the official maru repo and uploaded it to github. i'm also playing with maru, currently with two main goals in mind: 1 extend the level of my understanding of it 2 use this process to shape the project to be easier to approach for newcomers. then publish results with the hopes of integrating it into the official repo eventually. and hereby i invite interested hackers to hang around on #fonc on the freenode IRC server and combine our efforts. (irc details at: http://vpri.org/fonc_wiki/index.php/Mailing_list) as of 2, it'd first involve organizing the files and the build process in a way that makes it obvious what are the relatively independent subsystems (e.g. the files needed for the C bootstrapping), which files are generated, which files are generated+edited+committed into the repo (if there are then set up the build to gen+patch instead), etc. then work towards, and as soon as reasonable port the build process to maru. next on the list would be setting up more serious unit tests, also clearly separated. separating the tests also into mundane/interesting so that people can look at the interesting part to help understanding. other interesting projects later on: porting maru to ARM and playing with stuff like this is: http://www.seeedstudio.com/wiki/FST-01 (an ARM computer as a tiny usb stick). ultimately to replace/port projects like gnuk, a PGP smartcard (http://www.fsij.org/gnuk/). i'll do my best to optimize for most value provided using the least attention from Ian. -- • attila lendvai • PGP: 963F 5D5F 45C7 DFCD 0A39 -- “For those looking for security, be forewarned that there’s nothing more insecure than a political promise.” — Harry Browne (1933–2006) ___ fonc mailing list [email protected] http://vpri.org/mailman/listinfo/fonc
