Without their contributions, my job would've been +much harder. I'm very thankful. + + Aziz,,, + +==================================================================== +VERSION 0.0.2: + +- Eric Hanchrow (offby1) reported the first public bug on bignum + division error + +- Wolfram Fenske helped test porting the system to NetBSD and + FreeBSD, increasing the number of supported platforms from 3 to 5. + The Solaris port is still unfinished though. + +- Tom Gordon reported installation problems on 64-bit systems. + +- Jens Axel Søgaard(and his brother) provided solutions for + compiling Ikarus on 64-bit machines. + +- Andre van Tonder reported expansion problems for top-level + programs. He also made suggestions for improving the user's + guide. + +- Michael Adams helped in a zillion things including fixing typos, + making the command-line procedure consistent for scripts and + interactive sessions, installing the boot file in a proper + location (along with some help in using automake and autoconf), + and filed bug reports (on expt, modulo, error, get-line, + number->string, truncate, fltruncate, flabs, substring, + define-record-type, put-u8, the expander, and the + compiler). + +- Phil Bewig wrote SRFI-41 (streams) in R6RS, which loads flawlessly + in Ikarus. + +- Felix Klock reported (indirectly) that the +nan.0 and +inf.0 + should be case insensitive. + +- Derick Eddington reported garbage collection problems with code + that only uses bignum arithmetic. Also reported problems with + reading identifiers containing unicode escape sequences and + corrected a minor bug with export classifications. + +- Will Clinger indirectly reported that Ikarus does not support the + #!r6rs comment. + +==================================================================== +VERSION 0.0.1: + +- Kent Dybvig and Michael Adams both advised that the initial + release should build and install using the standard ./configure, + make, make install sequence. This made the lauch of Ikarus very + successful as people had little or no problems building and + installing it. + +- Will Byrd gave suggestions about the minimum stuff that should go + into the user's guide and suggested having a small R6RS tutorial. + +- Roshan James bugged me to port Ikarus to Windows. Only half of + his wish came true (cygwin is not windows in his dictionary). diff --git a/Makefile.am b/Makefile.am index c3a62a7..0103bdd 100644 --- a/Makefile.am +++ b/Makefile.am @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = foreign SUBDIRS = src scheme doc extras -EXTRA_DIST = README COPYING GPL-3 -dist_doc_DATA=README COPYING GPL-3 +EXTRA_DIST = README COPYING GPL-3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS +dist_doc_DATA=README COPYING GPL-3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS diff --git a/Makefile.in b/Makefile.in index 8302d6a..ec66af5 100644 --- a/Makefile.in +++ b/Makefile.in @@ -184,8 +184,8 @@ top_builddir = @top_builddir@ top_srcdir = @top_srcdir@ AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = foreign SUBDIRS = src scheme doc extras -EXTRA_DIST = README COPYING GPL-3 -dist_doc_DATA = README COPYING GPL-3 +EXTRA_DIST = README COPYING GPL-3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS +dist_doc_DATA = README COPYING GPL-3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS all: config.h $(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) all-recursive
