Message-ID: <87g02pn89q.fsf@tyrell.bad-people-of-the-future.san-francisco.ca.us> (raw)

So, I was just thinking: although RFC822 is a just-fine data format,
Guile has a perfectly wonderful built-in data format, namely, the
s-expression.

Wouldn't it be nice to have bugs defined thusly?

   (((number . 1)
     (title . "Bug 1")
     (reported-date . "10/14/1968")
     (reported-by . "Evan Prodromou")
     (affects . ("1.4" "1.6" "1.8"))
     (fixed-date . ("10/14/1968")))

   "Blah blah blah.
   and blah.")

I'm going ahead with the RFC822 format, anyways, though.
