Hello Guix! I wrote a recap of G-expressions, how we got there, and how they differ from related work that I’ll have the pleasure to present at GPCE¹ in Vancouver end of October:
https://hal.inria.fr/hal-01580582/en (The web site rebuilt the PDF from LaTeX source and that led to a weird layout, different from what I had. Talk about reproducibility…) If you’ve been following gexps all along, it will look familiar. One of the new things in there is the discussion of “hygiene” (scope preservation) for gexps, which I mentioned earlier². At least one of the anonymous reviewers appears to be a Scheme/Lisp/staging expert and made very detailed comments and suggestions, so I’m sure we’ll have interesting discussions there. :-) Ludo’. ¹ https://conf.researchr.org/home/gpce-2017 ² https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2017-07/msg00181.html
