11:07:27Gnuxie[m]Hi beach, me and no-defun-allowed have a draft of our short book and are looking for people to tell us what they think if you or anyone else here is interested and has time of course
16:45:31beachMajor progress today. I finished phase 3 and started phase 4. In phase 4 I can now create all bridge generic functions and all bridge classes. I have yet to use DEFMETHOD in phase 4, so there will be some debugging tomorrow.
16:45:38beachI can confirm that the code for bootstrapping is WAY more idiomatic and "orthogonal". The remainder of phase 4 should look very similar to the last part of phase 3 because of this "orthogonality".
16:45:39beachFor now, I will actually duplicate the code, and update the environment names, but ultimately, when I know how many similarities there are, this code will be factored. And factoring is going to be easier this time because of the orthogonality.
17:19:17splittistbeach: sounds cool. What are the 'dimensions' of the orthoganality?
