masak yes, and I want to understand that better 12:21
I feel I should write something down, like in a gist, the mdoel I envision, and the things that it solves
a consistent model, that I *know* solves all the problems we've found, is kind of what I was aiming for with the scope-exploration 12:22
but I feel I'm now in a better place to get all the way there, or almost all the way, without having to implement it 12:23
also, it would be useful to be "excruciatingly clear" with concepts like block, scope, frame, variable, identifier... so that they only mean one thing consistently within the text. 12:24

masak Ven``: but there's a recent central point that I would hope I could get you to agree with, or at least reach some kind of consensus on 12:29
Ven`` go ahead? 12:30
masak namely "the blocks that we insert to mess with scoping in and out of the injectile are subject to the same need to update their OUTER as ordinary blocks"
I realize that this is stated from my point of view, where we use blocks like that in the first place 12:31
but I maintain that the *problem* remains even under your proposed model 12:32
I would probably be able to come up with a concrete example that highlights this 12:33
Ven`` that would be helpful 12:39
masak ok, expect both the start of a gist and a concrete example this afternoon 12:40
Ven`` Ok. not sure internet won't disconnect by then, but I'm watching the irclog anyway :). 12:43
masak .oO( stay tuned )
Ven`` ™soon
