Hi all, I mentioned the Lisp workshop in ECOOP 2007, and my intention to try and write a paper for it. Sadly, I did find time to do so before the may 13 deadline. I was very disappointed, so when they extended the deadline to may 31, I took my bibliography and began to write.
I will co-author the paper with my brother, a Ph.D. student in Strasbourg[1], but I think I'll need, if not help, at least your input about the future plans of Elephant (about MOP semantics and features that make Elephant closer to an OODB). [1] https://dpt-info.u-strasbg.fr/~thierry/ I've setup a Mercurial repository for my paper[2]. [2] http://arcanes.fr.eu.org/~pierre/2007/05/ecoop/ Here is the current abstract: The data model of an application, the nature and format of data stored accross executions of the application, is typically a very rigid part of its early specification, even when prototyping, and changing it after code has been written that rely on it can prove quite expensive and error-prone. A MOP-based persistence library can bring to the data model the dynamic nature that Lisp shows with respect to code and data stored in a running Lisp image. This enables to extend the easy prototyping way of development to the storage of data. Lately, Pierre -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] OpenPGP 0xD9D50D8A
