As I noted already, Chibi provides SRFI 1 as an importable module, but doesn't use the reference implementation, probably because it's too large and thus not consonant with Chibi's goals. > It seems to me that there are two kinds of documents here.

Both WG1 and WG2 are supposed to provide such artifacts, though no one has stepped up to the plate to do so. -- A rose by any other name John Cowan may smell as sweet, http://www.ccil.org/~cowan but if you called it an onion [email protected] you'd get cooks very confused. --RMS _______________________________________________ Scheme-reports mailing list [email protected] http://lists.scheme-reports.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/scheme-reports
