Have you ever wished to have a place to put your Gambit code so that others could easily access it? Wait no longer and go to:
http://dynamo.iro.umontreal.ca/~gambit/wiki/index.php/Dumping_Grounds
Who will be the first to submit a package? Don't be shy... its the dumping grounds!

And the winner is Ken Dickey with two packages!

I'm really excited about this. I think there will be a huge amount of code dumped there.
I can polish my OpenGL FFI and put it up there in the near future, but it's a straight interface to the gl* functions. Anyone else have a nicer OpenGL FFI (that makes it more "schemey")?

So am I! I think that this somehow informal repository might even be better for gambit that (at least for now) any formal attempt to create a package repository. Unfortunately, the only code I have that can be published is not in my current country, and that computer hosting it is turned off...

Great! This reminds me a discussion I had with Joe Armstrong (Erlang) which said that X had in fact an underlying Messapge Passing Style hidden deeply under the unpleasant interface one has to use to program...
It might be useful to work on how some common purely imperative APIs can be (or are) interfaced properly from a functional programming point of view. There must be a hidden macro-based recipe to handle transparently most horrible function calls (by using some State Passing Style or a monad maybe?) It might be worth looking at GHC's (Haskell) interface to X which seems to be very effectively used in XMonad.
