For those of you interested in this gambit: If you were to predict where
FONC is going and what will come of the project, what would you do to
out-architect Alan Kay& Co?
There are many ways I could see people on here answering. You might want to
base your decisions off what they've released so far, issue a code review oh
what they've written so far and comment on how the SLOC could be reduced
even further. Also, you could state your own goals, since Alan, Alex and
Ian are all in the "novel-sized book" club and others in VPRI have more
specific interests (HyperCard legacy continued, etc.)
Programming should be essentially about creating triple-like-things
(which in turn define other abstractions). :-) Been working on it for
close to thirty years, still not done: :-)
