-This is the Guile developer notice-board. -*- change-log -*-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-CONTENTS: Notes of various kinds which the Guile developers want to
-share among eachother, e. g., a memo about something which needs
-fixing. Describing a certain problem here means that everyone is free
-to fix it when and as he wishes. (Of course it can sometimes be suitable
-to discuss it first.)
-
-RULES: Entries should have a date and the name of the author. Entries
-should be sufficiently detailed to enable other members of the team to
-understand them, but they need not be comprehensible to people who
-don't spend much time on Guile. This file should not go into
-snapshots or distributions, but is a strictly internal document.
-
-CONVENTIONS: ChangeLog format. (Reverse chronological order.)

- * libguile/gc.c (scm_gc_sweep): The probability of collecting a
- free cell should be very low (only occurring when a signal has
- interrupted allocation). Nevertheless, the GC immediately exits
- when the free cell test is enabled in the sweeper. Where does
- this free cell come from?
-
- * libguile/arbiters.c: Remove this file? When we've implemented
- POSIX thread support, "arbiters" will be superfluous.

-
- * libguile/unif.c: Introduce "fancy printing" for vectors. "Fancy
- printing" is performed by the printer when the `fancyp' flag is
- set in the print state (see print.h). One of its effects is that
- sequences should be printed with maximum `length' objects. (This
- is currently only used in backtraces and error messages).
- This works for lists, but not yet for vectors and arrays.

-
- * libguile/struct.c, libguile/struct.h, libguile/gc.c: Structs
- need reimplementation. Both user interface and representation
- need to be improved. E. g., the struct part of scm_gc_mark need
- to be a lot more efficient. We should probably do this redesign
- when designing(/porting) the object system.
-
- * libguile/symbols.c (SCM_SYMBOL_HASH): This is slot is currently
- not used for anything (except that it is used by symbol-hash). I
- suppose it was originally intended to avoid doing multiple hashing
- steps when handling symbols.
-
-Mon Mar 3 21:36:58 1997 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
-
- * libguile/procprop.c: The current implementation of procedure
- properties of closures uses a special property slot
- (SCM_PROCPROPS (closure)), but primitive procedures don't have
- such a slot. Setting or getting source properties for primitive
- procedures currently involves making fake closures. These are
- stored in an alist => finding the properties of a primitive
- procedure is O (n primitive procedures with properties) which is
- unacceptable.
