We are more than happy to teach new contributors all that they need to know and provide small, bite-sized yet interesting tasks.

Trying out a couple of new things with a statistics library for @DylanLanguage, like docs and function naming: opendylan.org/documentation/…

A long time ago, I made these notes about various syntax options: github.com/waywardmonkeys/pr…
Prefix Dylan was beautiful and an interesting starting point but has some issues.

We are interested in adding a new surface syntax to the Mindy interpreter. Anyone interested in discussing?

Also, the Mindy IO libraries have been merged into a single one that is more like that of Open Dylan.

Mindy, the @DylanLanguage interpreter, builds & runs on OS X, Linux & NetBSD. Windows is close but crashes at runtime and needs more love.

Trying something new and old at the same time: Project Mindy: lists.opendylan.org/pipermai…

The iteration speed enabled by mindy (the interpreter) might make it easier to experiment with some new ideas in a low overhead environment.

Mindy, the old Dylan interpreter can be built and then build several libraries in less than 4 seconds, starting from some C & Dylan files.

Somehow, I ended with a branch called "dev/netbsd". Maybe this road leads to the Rump Kernel?
Testworks now has expected-failure support as well as new assert-instance? and assert-not-instance? assertions.

func allItemsMatch<C1: Container, C2: Container where C1.ItemType == C2.ItemType, C1.ItemType: Equatable>: How to type check efficiently?
lldb from xcode 7 shows object summaries in new places, like stack frames. This is great our LLDB integration: pastebin.com/FmUt3RBm

If anyone has advice on a road to Unicode in @DylanLanguage, we would love to discuss it.
