Yes, sometime in the upcoming decade. > Was there anything learned from this project that can aid development of similar projects? What is a "similar project?" Yokota Yuki's with-c-syntax¹ takes a completely different approach to parsing and runtime representation (it is similar to ScottBurson's ZetaC², which I studied closely before writing Vacietis). I want to use this to run OpenBSD or NetBSD hardware device drivers on a memory-safe Common Lisp operating system runtime. For me a "similar project" is user-space device drivers. ¹ https://github.com/y2q-actionman/with-c-syntax/ ² http://www.bitsavers.org/bits/TI/Explorer/zeta-c/
