Well! While I am sure that everyone at RacketCon has already discussed this to
death, and I’m sure there has been plenty of support to counterbalance the
tomato-throwing, let me be the first to say something positive on the mailing
list so the optics from here aren’t so gloomy: I find this idea
Hi,
I recently became interested in recursion schemes, and I noticed that
almost all implementations are in typed languages. I understand the
advantage of having an implementation using recursion at the type level,
but why is it that there are so few material in untyped languages?

At RacketCon today, after summarizing the state of work on Racket CS, I
recommended that we next explore the possibly of changing to an
infix-oriented syntax in "Racket2".

Yes, it's a good source of inspiration. However it's really meant for
shell scripting and isn't quite a good fit for the case I need, which is
for more general racket programming.

I want to briefly echo this sentiment.

I appreciate your enthusiasm to get started! And I normally appreciate
concrete proposals to

Hi Dionna, thanks for your reply!
I gave a response to you IRL that I think I hadn't conveyed here which
is that there's a reason I'm taking the lambda-approach to capabilities
(which is explicit) vs an ambient/dynamic approach of continuation
marks. One reason is that the work I'm trying to
Capabilities can be tracked with continuation marks. For a language to
grant a subset of capabilities to a required module, you can do something
like contract-in that will wrap identifiers with a with-continuation-marks
capability restriction. The tricky part becomes how to make all I/O
subsystems

The context of this email is the proposal by Matthew Flatt that we move

Matthew Flatt has heard more than enough from me of concern about this
proposal. But I should indicate that I'm highly sympathetic to the
goal. I would like to lay

Thanks for the feedback. I will check to see if there's some way to query
for capabilities, but I doubt it, given the client code.
The client code does most of this version checking in one class, so that
seems localized enough and I think it will be straight forward. Maybe if I
