P.S. We're planning a major face-lift for the Gambit web site. What would you like to see on the site? If you have suggestions please let us know. Sorry if the latest releases are not on the web site... I have lost the password and it is taking longer than expected to get a new one... sigh!

Are you interested in the changes to gambit.h? I was considering cleaning up the definition and use of the ___MARCBIGA... macros, but ...

A wiki might make sense, but wiki spam has become a problem (so the wiki needs good mechanisms against it) and I don't know if there are enough contributors (the SISC wiki isn't very promising, for example). It might at least provide a page with links to contributions, and maybe one with links to papers. (There's Wiliki written in Gauche (used by http://community.schemewiki.org), and some Wiki code written for Chicken by Alejandro Forero Cuervo, and there's one for Scsh. I'm not sure I'm interested in porting one of those right now, though.) Linking to an existing external wiki might be a valid alternative (www.schemewiki.org explicitely offered their service to scheme implementors about a year ago).
A darcs or git (or arch?) repository for Gambit-C and maybe also contributions? (I haven't used either of those versioning systems yet, but they are what I think are the most promising ones.)
When, some time in the future, an addon distribution system ("gems") should get ready, it will need a place.
Writing the site in SXML and Scheme might be a nice idea. That's one of the things I want to use gambit for, but I'm not currently at a point where I'm able to provide relevant code (more than what's available in chjmodule: sxml-tree-trans, sxml-serializer, cj-sxml-util). I did once write a small site with Gambit, but it was just a combination of ad hoc scheme coding and sxml-serializer and worked as a batch system. There's your http server, of course, but unless there's dynamic content it would probably be overkill. Still, basing the site on SXML/Scheme would make it future proof :)

I'd like to see a kind of todo list which informs about what is planned for the next release(s).

If the Gambit web site will contain dynamically generated content, I would like that the generating programs will have been developed using Gambit. Seeing the source code then would also be nice.

Yes, that's the plan. Initially some parts may be in other languages, but the goal is to have everything running with Gambit. It will be a nice showcase for the system.
Members of this list should let me know if they have time to contribute on this project.
