<lispmacs[work]> I was wondering about gforth: the last release was 0.7.3, but there have been like six years worth of commits since then (...?)
<veltas> I am also wondering, gforth has had significant updates since the last release, but the releases have stopped
<veltas> The latest version of gforth is very nice and worth the effort to install

<veltas> lispmacs[work]: Actually I think gforth has had new releases, mine says 0.7.9, I think the website is just not being updated
<veltas> I have no idea why Anton Ertl et al have not updated their website in so long

<lispmacs[work]> veltas: the git repository has tags for 0.7.9, for sure. however, there are no release tarballs newer than 0.7.3
<veltas> Yes that's exactly the problem, the website has not been maintained
<veltas> gforth.org has been maintained a bit actually
<veltas> I don't know why but they need to sort it out, it makes it look dead
<veltas> Who knows how much interest/traffic they've lost over this....
<veltas> The problem I would guess is there are always more interesting things to do than muck about with a website :P
<veltas> Was anyone here ever involved with one-laptop-per-child?
<lispmacs[work]> veltas: the main issue for me is need to convince my distro to update to the latest and greatest. but the git tags are a bit confusing as they have been using the 0.7.9_YYYYMMDD approach, with about 40 tags for 0.7.9 spread over two or three years
<lispmacs[work]> distro maintainers will want to know what is the current stable version
<veltas> I'm on Debian this moment and I'm happy that gforth is here, but it is still 0.7.3
<veltas> Which distro?
<veltas> You can probably email Anton Ertl to get that kind of info, ask him for a link to the comp.lang.forth archive announcement or something
<veltas> I tried searching earlier but ironically google is not good at searching the archive which they host

<lispmacs[work]> veltas: I'm running Guix. Guix can attach the package to a git tag easily enough. But the maintainers don't like to attach on to any little commits that aren't serious releases
<lispmacs[work]> maybe I'll email Anton after I get home from work
