[polyml] Is PolyML development dead?

How does your program depend on PolyML, specifically? It is quite close to complete conformance to the standard, after all. The one problem is that its Basis library is getting quite out of date, because the standard keeps changing in that respect.

If you ask "is it safe to keep developing for an obsolete Basis" I'd say no, because the next release of PolyML, if it comes, will fix the library and break your code. I don't know if there's a choice, though. Maybe you could grab some other compiler's Basis and link it with your code.

More precisely, Scheme :-)
