<shapr>hello again, is there a write up of the status of spritely?
<shapr>I know guile and racket were supported, but I think it's only one now?
<dthompson>shapr: there are both guile and racket versions of goblins, our distributed programming system. guile is the main implementation with the most bells and whistles.
<dthompson>as the ocapn protocol evolves we make sure to keep racket goblins compatible with guile goblins
<shapr>dthompson: thank you!
<dthompson>np :)
<bremner>is there (somewhere) a racket->wasm project?
<cwebber>bremner: there was a talk at racketcon but iirc dthompson said, I think, that it was fairly experimental and was mostly a compiling the whole project via emscripten type approach
<bremner>right, that fits my vague recollections. Thanks.
<dthompson>bremner: here's the racketcon talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6q_J4ZAKlAU&list=PLXr4KViVC0qKmAX_RnT0-mHKaJrF90Nxb&index=5
<dthompson>hoot is indirectly mentioned in the q&a or something, so they're aware of it
