EVAL/EVAL-WHEN/%COMPILE/DEFUN/DEFSTRUCT cleanup:
- ** made inlining DEFUN inside MACROLET work again
- ** made %COMPILE set up debugging data more like the way the
- debugger expects (and maybe even completely
- correctly:-)
- *** made (DISASSEMBLE 'PRINT) work
-* incompatible changes listed in NEWS:
- ** changed debugger prompt to "5]", "5[2]", "5[3]", etc.
- ** changed default output representation of *PRINT-ESCAPE*-ed
- unprintable ASCII characters to #\Nul, #\Soh, etc.
-* some easy FIXMEs with high disruptive potential:
- ** Search lists go away.
- ** Grep for ~D and and change most of them to ~S.
-* more renaming in global external names:
- ** used DEFINE-THE-FOO-THING and DEFFOO style consistently (and
- deprecated supported extensions named in the DEF-FOO
- style, e.g. SB-ALIEN:DEF-ALIEN-ROUTINE)
+* more renaming (esp. for global as opposed to lexical names):
** reserved DO-FOO-style names for iteration macros
- ** finished s/FUNCTION/FUN/
- ** s/VARIABLE/VAR/
- ** s/TOP-LEVEL/TOPLEVEL/
-* global style systematization:
- ** s/#'(lambda/(lambda/
- ** four-space indentation in C
+ ** s/ARGUMENT/ARG/
+ ** perhaps s/DEF-FROB/DEF/ or s/DEF-FROB/DEFINE/
+ ** merged SB-C-CALL into SB-ALIEN
+* Perhaps rename "cold" stuff (e.g. SB-COLD and src/cold/) to "boot".
+* fixed CREDITS, since it's gone pretty stale
+* reviewed NEWS
+* pending patches and bug reports that go in (or else get handled
+ somehow, rejected/logged/whatever) before 0.7.0:
=======================================================================
for early 0.7.x:
-* building with CLISP (or explaining why not)
+* patches postponed until after 0.7.0:
+ ** CSR "rough patch to fix bug 106" 2001-10-28
+ ** Alexey Dejneka "bug 111" 2001-12-30
+* building with CLISP (or explaining why not). This will likely involve
+ a rearrangement of the build system so that it never renames
+ the output from COMPILE-FILE, because CLISP's COMPILE-FILE
+ outputs two (!) files and as far as I can tell LOAD uses both
+ of them. Since I have other motivations for this rearrangement
+ besides CLISPiosyncrasies, I'm reasonably motivated to do it.
+* urgent EVAL/EVAL-WHEN/%COMPILE/DEFUN/DEFSTRUCT cleanup:
+ ** made inlining DEFUN inside MACROLET work again
+ ** (also, while working on INLINE anyway, it should be easy
+ to flush the old MAYBE-INLINE cruft entirely,
+ including e.g. on the man page)
+ ** fixed bug 137 (more)
* faster bootstrapping (both make.sh and slam.sh)
** added mechanisms for automatically finding dead code, and
used them to remove dead code
* Probably get rid of or at least rework the fdefinition/encapsulation
system so that (SYMBOL-FUNCTION 'FOO) = (FDEFINITION 'FOO).
=======================================================================
-for 1.0:
+for 0.9:
* refactored in preparation for moving CLOS into cold init and merging
SB-PCL:FOO with CL:FOO (for FOO=CLASS, FOO=CLASS-OF, etc.)
between minor maintenance releases on the stable branch (but no
promises, sorry, since I've never tried to do this before, and
have no idea how much of a pain this'll be)
+========================================================================
+for 1.0 (fixes of lower priority which I'd nonetheless be embarrassed
+to leave unfixed in 1.0):
+* all too many BUGS entries and FIXMEs
=======================================================================
