There are two lisp implementations on the GNU project: Three, you forgot about GNU Common Lisp.
So the work consist on write wrapper libraries in C for cover the hurd API, including trivfs, netfs, and so. I'd rather see wrappers for somethings that are in the Hurd specific parts of glibc. I can't imagin why someone would want to write a translator in scheme for example, but being able to interact with translators is far more plausible (setting translators on a node, removing, getting information about them, etc). I would also rather see the console be extended properly so that it uses guile instead of what is currently there. You can't reconfigure any parts of the console right now, and using guile to extend the console for reconfiguration, and adding features would be extremely useful. In other words, I think that writting translators in scheme can wait. But if you wish to persue that, then that is your choice. :-) _______________________________________________ gnu-system-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-system-discuss
