Notes of a technical nature

InPhase asked today on #scheme about the R7RS vs R6RS debate. I
followed the original debate closely and have experience both using
and implementing R6RS. I also recently added R7RS support
in Akku.scm 0.3.0, so I feel like I can weigh in on this. It’s
a topic that many feel passionately about, and I’m also firmly on one
side of the debate, but I will try to keep my own opinions and
hyperbole out of it this time.

I have made some strides with Akku.scm since the introductory blog article and the announcement on the Chez Scheme mailing list. The big feature on the horizon is support for translating R7RS libraries to run on R6RS.

I previously wrote about an AI for the Columns game. It was actually not written for the web to start with, but for a set of NeoPixel displays. Now I have fixed it up a little, made the code public and even have a picture to show.

In a previous article, I wrote about Akku.scm, a package manager for Scheme. It is far from being the first package manager or even the first for Scheme. There have been at least a dozen failed attempts at getting something going.
