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. ~ESP -- Evan Prodromou evan@glug.org _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
