Subject: Updating Snippets in the LSR when versions are updated
People,
After being bitten (unnecessarily) by old code in the LSR and having a
continuing argument with David about how it came about - I have to ask
- is there any reason why all the snippets in the LSR can't be
automatically updated when a new version is introduced? Surely this
would not be hard to do? If the Guile syntax is changing so often,
what is the point of keeping old code in the LSR? It is fair enough
to tell people that they have to convert THEIR OWN code but the people
who run the LSR, repo should be responsible for keeping that up to
date . .
If there is an argument for keeping a snippet in it's original form
because of historical significance or something - an archive could be
kept of it.
Just my 2c . .
Regards,
Phil.

We would need to be able to contact the maintainer of the LSR and get
him to update it. At present, we can't :-(
I haven't been here long so I don't know what the significance is of
that reply - shouldn't someone maintaining something as important as the
LSR be contactable?
In an ideal world, yes.
