ChezScheme VS ops-examples

The main line of Chez Scheme is here:

https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme

There is more work to be done before release 10.0.

What is yakihonne? Another blogging platform? Rather confusing to use.

Anyway, would have been nice for the article to link to Chez Scheme project's page, which seems to be this one:

https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme

Also not clear why should folks use Chez? The article barely covered the why or what successful apps have been written in Chez.

Who will convince Kent to come back and make r6.1rs? https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme/issues/574

If you want a large language, isn't it a better idea to build it on top of something the makes better guarantees for the user? I prefer my program to not continue executing after reaching an erroneous state.

So far as I know Chez is not a variation on Guile, it's a scheme implementation similar to Guile, and so far that I can see Guile is more active, with more community and more package ecosystem , and looks like Chez is/was a cisco project, not sure how is the development process there, but Guile looks like more active in terms of commits https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guile.git, the last one in "main" is 3 weeks ago vs may 23 https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme/commits/main.

The link doesn't work for me but to answer the title, I found it interesting to learn that Chez Scheme (often regarded as the Scheme implementation which produces the fastest programs) is developed by Cisco, the company that makes networking hardware

Göran is spot on. I am sad that Marc's proposal on the chez tracker has seemingly died: https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme/issues/574

Many open source project don't allow contributions from people that have worked with similar projects with incompatible licenses. I remember https://github.com/cisco/ChezScheme/pull/376#issuecomment-45... and https://wiki.winehq.org/Developer_FAQ#Copyright_Issues

Yeh - we have a small language list here:

https://github.com/nanovms/ops-examples

If you're looking for a particular piece of software search on the repo first:

https://repo.ops.city/

If you don't find it and need help creating one ping me or open an issue in ops.

Nanos runs not just go but pretty much any language you want to throw at it:

https://github.com/nanovms/ops-examples .

FYI, erlang && elixir workloads can run on Nanos: https://github.com/nanovms/ops-examples/tree/master/elixir .

I do understand what you are asking for though. There used to be an older project called erlang-on-xen: https://github.com/cloudozer/ling .

It'd be great to see this idea revisited although you'll need to create some sort of new handling/framework.

See for example nanovm provides examples for a bunch of different languages, including this in Chicken Scheme https://github.com/nanovms/ops-examples/tree/master/scheme/01-hello-world ...I expect Racket would be possible too
