Scheme Language Steering Committee Report to the Community
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
March 1, 2006
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Since the last report of the Steering Committee, a number of important
|
||
|
|
changes have taken place.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First, Marc Feeley and Manuel Serrano have resigned from the Editors
|
||
|
|
Committee. We have accepted their resignations with regret, and with
|
||
|
|
gratitude for the efforts they have expended to produce a revised
|
||
|
|
Scheme standard.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In light of these changes, the Steering Committee has amended the
|
||
|
|
Charter to:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(a) change the number of Editors from seven to five.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(b) replace the office of Editor-in-Chief by a Chair and a Project
|
||
|
|
Editor. The Chair is responsible for organizing meetings and other
|
||
|
|
activities and ensuring that the process makes progress in an orderly
|
||
|
|
fashion. The Project Editor is responsible for producing
|
||
|
|
standardization documents.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The five editors have chosen their Chair and Project Editor. They
|
||
|
|
are:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Chair: Kent Dybvig
|
||
|
|
Project Editor: Mike Sperber
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Editors Committee has now produced a progress report, which is
|
||
|
|
available at schemers.org. In it they state their intention to
|
||
|
|
deliver to the Steering Committee a complete draft R6RS by September
|
||
|
|
1, 2006.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Steering Committee looks forward to receiving their draft.
