  • Withdrawn SRFI 204: Wright-Cartwright-Shinn Pattern Matcher

    From Arthur A. Gleckler@21:1/5 to All on Wed Feb 2 14:56:50 2022
    Scheme Request for Implementation 204,
    "Wright-Cartwright-Shinn Pattern Matcher,"
    by Felix Thibault,
    has gone into withdrawn status.

    The document and an archive of the discussion are available at <https://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-204/>.

    This SRFI has been withdrawn by me, the editor, not by Felix, the
    author. The first draft was published 567 days ago, and the most
    recent draft was published 207 days ago. Progress on the SRFI has
    apparently stopped, so I announced that I would mark it withdrawn if
    there was no progress by 2022-02-01. Alas, that deadline has passed.

    Thanks to Felix and everyone else for all their hard work on this
    SRFI.

    I truly wish we could have finalized this SRFI, as the WCS pattern
    matcher is an important contribution to Scheme, and standardizing it
    would have made it easier for even more people to use it.

    There's no reason that someone couldn't take this SRFI up and move it
    forward, under a new number. I encourage anyone who is interested in volunteering to do so.

    Here is the commit summary since the most recent draft:

    - Update links to use TLS/SSL.
    - Withdraw (by editor) for lack of progress.

    Regards,


    SRFI Editor
