At times I was scratching my head and wondering what was going on but if you mean continuations that wouldn't resume due to a bug I do not think so. >> It would be if someone(nudge nudge) were to take the effort to make >> one of these experiments practical, since a guile web framework seems >> to be a common request. > > Indeed! What I think would be nice would be to add a (web server control) library making the most common web programming continuation operators available for use in any framework built on top of (web server). This would probably require installing a prompt in `run-server' somewhere, (but that is not too expensive I think in the case it's never used?) and having some policy on how the continuation table is to be managed. One simple way would be to make use of a weak hashtable, although that may not be ideal in all situations. -Tobias
