Colleen
<shinmera> paper draft is out: https://filebox.tymoon.eu//file/TWpNM053PT0= reviews would be appreciated!
13:02:05
Colleen
<selwyn> concerned about the size of the uppermost label in fig. 1, had to zoom in to read it
13:02:43
Colleen
<selwyn> the inline caption ´an illustration of standard method combination´ is ugly and in any case is repeated in the caption for fig.1 itself
13:03:24
Colleen
<selwyn> in sec. 5, would prefer more explanation on why the block compilation provisions are not met
13:04:11
Colleen
<selwyn> as well as why you didn´t touch the assembler routines much? lack of time or infeasible? you explain at the end of sec. 5 that it is a lot of work but it would be nice to have that comment earlier
13:05:17
Colleen
<selwyn> feel that in sec. 6 a discussion on the prospects of actually getting a new gc for sbcl would be nice, and what that might look like. alternatively that could go in the conclusion
13:07:07
Colleen
<selwyn> i would think about laying out the structure of the paper in the introduction, sth like ´we will discuss clos, the condition system, optimisation and gc´
13:07:27
Colleen
<selwyn> but seeing as how all the sections are disjoint from each other you can probably get away with not doing that

SAL9000
same goes for "are called in..." -- you could omit the "are called in" prefix to make them shorter, and thus raise font size while still fitting inside the box?

Colleen
<shinmera> and yeah, figure is definitely too small. I just copypasted the one from wiki, but will make adjustments to it.
13:53:09
Colleen
<shinmera> Well, I do think that writing something short is harder than writing something long.
13:53:57
Colleen
<selwyn> perhaps it needs to be cut down for the submission guidelines but i didn´t think it was overly verbose
13:54:41
Colleen
<shinmera> I'd never dare submit something without related works to an academic conference lol

Colleen
<shinmera> SAL9000: by the way, reconnection in the weelichat client is still badly broken

Colleen
<shinmera> Really wish someone else could take over maintenance of some of my projects. These days I have so little time for anything
