<daviid>folks, I solved my make distcheck / texi2dvi bug, so nobody needs to worry anymore :)

<paroneayea>well

<paroneayea>looks like the emacs hackathon is tomorrow!

<paroneayea>so here I am, reading documentation on the guile compiler tower

<paroneayea>wow

<paroneayea>the "An Introduction to CPS" part of guile-next's manual is *really* nice

<paroneayea>nice job wingo!

<amz3>héllo :)

<burhanloey>hello

<wingo>tx paroneayea :)

<paroneayea>:)

<paroneayea>wingo: how do you feel about working towards merging bipt's emacs lisp enhancements into master?

<paroneayea>I might give a shot at it at the hackathon tonight

<wingo>i feel good about it :)

<paroneayea>though of course I'm totally naieve about this stuff

<paroneayea>but I did spend last night reading the docs and trying to read over the code

<wingo>i think that code needs a maintainer, and if you want to be that person (even if temporarily) that would be swell

<paroneayea>wingo: I'd *like* to learn to be that maintainer

<paroneayea>since I care a lot about the project

<paroneayea>though I'm going to ask a lot of dumb questions if I try

<wingo>please do ask the questions, happy to answer

<paroneayea>wingo: :)

<wingo>i was going to say that i was in a similar position with guile a few years ago (completely ignorant, grappling with someone else's code) but probably you're not as ignorant and also in your case you have someone to ask

<wingo>so it could go ok :) expect understanding to take a while, but it can come eventually

<wingo>*as ignorant as i was

<paroneayea>wingo: ha, you understimate the depths of my ignorance!

<paroneayea>but I will try

<paroneayea>wingo: there is one thing I should ask about immediately, since there are only two conflicts in merging the code, and only one of them is a real conflict

<paroneayea>wingo: oh wait I see part of it

<paroneayea>wingo: so you removed dead-slot-maps in assembler.scm and added slot-maps

<paroneayea>from death to life!

<wingo>:)

<wingo>actually it was related to unboxing

<wingo>used to be there was only one bit of information: live or dead

<wingo>now it's live scm, live unboxed, or dead

<wingo>er

<wingo>something like that

<paroneayea>wingo: ok cool

<paroneayea>so bipt added something new to the asm record

<paroneayea>which is to-file?
