That's why I based Askemos eventually at pi-Calculus, atomic steps and message exchange. At least we *have* *some* math for those. N(ot matter how much we ignore it eventually.) /Joerg PS: To the rscheme dependancy of askemos code base: it's mostly R5RS and the chicken port once did deliver pages. (The rscheme persistant store used to be a bit unstable until version 0.7.3.30 or so. We recover from a file system mirror based on plain/xml files. The chicken version ran just out of that one.) But I admit that the current version will not build with the chicken support any more. Help appreciated. _______________________________________________ Chicken-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-users
