Hi, I just skimmed through the Termite paper - it looks awesome. Looking at the commit log of the repo, however, reveals the code hasn't been touched since 2009. Yikes! What a pity, it seems like such an interesting project. Sorry if this seems like a pointless e-mail. Cheers, Ralph

Well, if you like termite please don't let the (lack of) activity stop you from using it. If you find problems with the implementation or if you have ideas on extensions you could contribute to the code! I continue to be interested in distributed computing with Gambit and hope to integrate some of Termites features natively. Marc
Hi Ralph, Note that the core features described by the Termite paper - the serialization of continuations and closures - are in Gambit. I believe there was a repackaging of Termite for an early version Black Hole though can't remember any details, Per may know. Brgds 2013/4/26 Ralph Möritz <ralph.moeritz@outlook.com>

I haven't tested it recently, but why assume that no code changes mean something bad? What if it just works, and that no updates have proven necessary? P! On 25 April 2013 23:25, Ralph Möritz <ralph.moeritz@outlook.com> wrote:

You're absolutely right Adrien & I'm definitely going to play around with it! -- Is it possible that software is not like anything else, that it is meant to be discarded: that the whole point is to see it as a soap bubble? -- Alan Perlis
