[Chicken-users] Use Chicken 3 egg in 4

2014-10-09 Thread Sascha Ziemann

Hi,

is it possible to use a Chicken 3 egg like the the SMTP client in 
Chicken 4? I can not find the SMTP client in the version 4 eggs.


Regards,
Sascha

In principle yes. The most significant changes and the reason why
eggs haven't been ported in general is the module system and hygienic
macros, i.e. define-macro no longer works.

If you rewrite use cases of that you should be fine.

Cheers,

Christian

[Chicken-users] ICFP 2015 Call for Workshop and Co-located Event Proposals

2014-10-09 Thread David Van Horn
 CALL FOR WORKSHOP AND CO-LOCATED EVENT PROPOSALS
ICFP 2015
 20th ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional Programming
   August 30 - September 5, 2015
Vancouver, Canada
   http://icfpconference.org/icfp2015/

The 120th ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional
Programming will be held in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada on
August 30-September 5, 2015.  ICFP provides a forum for researchers
and developers to hear about the latest work on the design,
implementations, principles, and uses of functional programming.

Proposals are invited for workshops (and other co-located events, such
as tutorials) to be affiliated with ICFP 2015 and sponsored by
SIGPLAN. These events should be less formal and more focused than ICFP
itself, include sessions that enable interaction among the attendees,
and foster the exchange of new ideas. The preference is for one-day
events, but other schedules can also be considered.

The workshops are scheduled to occur on August 30 (the day
before ICFP) and September 3-5 (the three days after ICFP).

[Chicken-users] new egg: bindings for nanomsg

2014-10-09 Thread Kristian Lein-Mathisen
Hi folks!

I've just played around with nanomsg which I really like. It fits really
nice into Chicken's inner workings, with it's new file-descriptors which
you can poll().

So I've started creating some bindings, and though it might be enough for
an egg. Please look over it and add it to the coop!

Thanks,
K.
