So no future for mac users then ;-). Bummer...
There is a MacPort of gc7.1 that I successfully installed. Is there any way to
use that?
I tried various sneaky things, including:

Since, the whole point of your project is to be succinct, learning from and then

Hi Alan,
just out of curiosity: I am wondering why VPRI is not aiming at a more
community oriented style of innovation. Do you think the communcation
effort is not worth the cost since you do not gain enough or even loose
some freedom and / or speed by discussing archictural concepts more
So can I correctly infer from your comment that they haven't been

I wouldn't mind seeing the throw-away projects. If I didn't think
there was something to learn from failure, I would leave the startup

Well, what properties do you think might be enormously problematic with stack

Thanks for asking. I don't really have much first hand experience here
(which is why I asked in the first place), and that phrase doesn't
immediately ring a bell.
Factor has reflection, continuations, optional typing, and meta-programming
