Today chromatic went on #perl6 and did a lengthy interview for perl.com; there's been many interesting exchanges.
Ingy has started working with abandon on the ext/
system of Pugs, starting with his "Kwid" extension. It will hopefully culminate to something sane and happy for Perl 6 library users. :)
nnunley has converted Pretty.hs to use Text.PrettyPrint; we have also discussed the possibility for the Eval monad to derive its own Freeze/Thaw methods, to make serializable continuations more easily implementable, along with interesting applications like a backstepping debugger.
I have checked in the readline
(also known as unary =
) primitive, as well as open()
calls that can write/append files.
Our new committer, clsung (the tireless FreeBSD committer for p5-* ports), has started hacking away at the tests. ycheng also implemented "chmod".
There is no doubt other developments I did not cover, but it's getting late, so see you tomorrow. :-)
