1Random notes from Ken's brain on the future of Mosml -*- indented-text -*- 2========================================================================== 3(legend: * means think about, + means completed, - means droped) 4 5 62000-05-08: 7----------- 8 * Port to new O'Caml runtime to clearify license issues 9 10 * Investigate what needs to be done so as ml-{lex,yacc} can be used 11 with mosml 2.0 12 13 * Talk to Peter and Claudio about why mosml{,c} are shell-scripts 14 instead of plain mosml program. The shell scripts are causing 15 problems with rpm. 16 17 What is the O'Caml solution? 18 19 * Look at IO from the SML Basis Lib (SBL). And Port it to mosml. 20 21 * Document which parts of SBL mosml implements, which parts mosml 22 does *not* implements, and where we diverge. 23 24 * Document PM and go over the current design (throw away the current 25 implementation and make a new more robust implementation) 26 27 * Write article to Dr. Dobbs or Linux Journal about SML and mosml in 28 Particular. 29 30 * Write a hackers tutorial to put on the Web. 31 32 * Make x86 native compiler (maybe just by translating .uo files) 33
