that project probably is ancient history now (but only george can tell). The |
12 |
only benefit I could see in such a project would be only for porting new |
13 |
languages and/or giving manpower to a herd maintaining some rare flavors (compilers / |
14 |
interpreters) (but there is a lang-misc herd, dont' know if it's |
15 |
related to some project though). I can't find a reason atm for |
16 |
example the lisp project to move as subproject of this and bug 151118[1] |
17 |
does not convince me. Here[2] someone can find the original discussion |
18 |
on this. |

As for what you wrote about cleanliness and order, I understand what you |
21 |
mean, but a web/wiki page listing all projects related to programming |
22 |
languages would serve the same. |
