| masak | so, I was thinking | 13:12 | |
| a lot of the things we want working in 007 (and Perl 6) long term have to do with the compiler infrastructure providing useful interfaces and extension points to the macro/slang writer | 13:13 | ||
| in other words, we want to make the language implementation *pluggable* | 13:14 | ||
| that in itself may be a fairly minor insight, but I don't recall ever thinking about it that way before | |||

| I don't remember, maybe you can help me a bit -- where did Ipso fall short? | 19:37 | ||
| macros but no syntax, right? | 19:38 | ||
| ah no, no macros | |||
| you didn't go through with macros in Ipso because you felt, as it had no syntax, that it wouldn't bring many interesting things, right? | |||
