• Withdrawn SRFI 186: Transcoders and transcoded ports

    From Arthur A. Gleckler@21:1/5 to All on Tue Sep 8 12:01:03 2020
    Scheme Request for Implementation 186,
    "Transcoders and transcoded ports,"
    by John Cowan,
    has gone into WITHDRAWN status.

    The document and an archive of the discussion are available at <https://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-186/>.

    Here is the reason for withdrawal:

    In message "Re: SRFI 186: Transcoders and transcoded ports," Jim Rees
    reported a difference between SRFI 186 and R6RS with respect to
    end-of-line translation. John wanted to make this SRFI match R6RS in
    that regard, but since this SRFI had been finalized, it's too late to
    change it. Instead, John addressed the issue in SRFI 181, which had
    not yet been finalized despite its later number. SO SRFI 186 WAS
    WITHDRAWN IN FAVOR OF SRFI 181.

    Here is the commit summary since the most recent draft:

    - Add "based-on" credit.
    - Editorial changes
    - Add see-also links between 80, 81, and 186.
    - Show keywords.
    - Use HTML links on HTML pages.
    - Fix many HTML errors.
    - Finalize SRFI 186.
    - post-finalization note on end-of-line handling
    - Mention planned withdrawal.
    - Add See-also links.
    - Withdraw SRFI 186 in favor of 181.
