Re: SRFI-29 Scott G. Miller 10 Jun 2002 14:31 UTC
I'm cc'ing this to the SRFI discussion group.  There was quite
a debate about issue 3, which ended up both with that format and only
including that as an extension in SRFI-29, so if you disagree, the point
really should be raised on the list.    1,2,4 are all valid of course.
I believe 5 may be correct as is, but I'll check.  6: Could you clarify
what you mean by setting mode?  As for the names, these guys match up with
parameters in most Scheme systems, but I'm not opposed to making them more
Schemish.
