The main page points to
http://chicken.wiki.br/releases/
3.4.0 is there. So it gives the impression that's the newest "stable"
version. Now I wonder if that's actually true? There are more dev
releases in the 3.4.x series; which one should Linux distros be using?
4.0.0 is NOT there.
Why can't the releases page actually be in sync with the releases that
are available? Because it's a manual process and somebody always
forgets to update it? Maybe make it more automated then? or just
point to a web directory which has listings turned on and does not
have an index file, so we can see what tarballs are there.
On gentoo I managed to build 3.4.0 by just copying the 3.3.0 ebuild.
I haven't seen a link anywhere to
http://www.call-with-current-continuation.org/chicken-4.0.0.tar.gz
other than Felix's email. Why isn't that in the usual releases
directory instead?
