In particular, he wanted the relational data model concept of a tuple. He felt that this could be satisfied with the data types `Mapping` and `Hash` with the addition of some common relational operators such as `join()`, `semijoin()`, `semidifference()`, `rename()`, `project()`, `remove()`, `compose()`, `wrap()`, and `unwrap()`. More recently, John Beppu suggested reading about a relational language extension for Python which was inspired by 'The Third Manifesto'. Two problems in particular were the impedance mismatch between programming languages and databases, and the weakness and syntactic awkwardness of SQL. Darren thought John raised some good points. thread_uri: http://groups.google.com/group/perl.perl6.language/browse_frm/thread/5a67d8e21d086fec/5793e6c021abb198?#5793e6c021abb198 - date_from: 1174249504 date_to: 1176461957 hidden: ~ message_id: 45FD9FB0.90101@xmission.com messages: - 45FE889B.2010902@conway.org - bf92fb8e0703191041of05cd1ap42bb58adbd333f1b@mail.gmail.com - 461E3E47.3080402@conway.org - 51dd1af80704120826x73251781ka39c5765dbfd5342@mail.gmail.com - 51dd1af80704120830r7bbca81dw32b86d74c94108c4@mail.gmail.com - 461F6276.2080807@conway.org posters: - email: thom@xmission.com name: Thom Boyer - email: damian@conway.org name: Damian Conway - email: avarab@gmail.com name: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason - email: jerry.gay@gmail.com name: jerry gay subject: 'Re: Synopsis 26' summary: |- Thom Boyer responded to Damian Conway's post from November which thanked people for offering feedback on the first draft.

Also, he thought it was a bad idea to comment out sections of code without explaining why they were commented out. H.Merijn Brand also expressed his distaste for this type of comment. Matt Diephouse applied the patch in r17692. He said that there was a test for C++ style comments, but that it doesn't appear to check all generated code. - date_from: 1174568781 date_to: 1175022632 hidden: ~ message_id: Pine.LNX.4.62.0703220859090.4343@fractal.phys.lafayette.edu messages: - 460518F9.5060901@verizon.net - 200703240838.26776.chromatic@wgz.org - 12DE361B-1764-4B1A-8506-8A7BBBF16E40@verizon.net - 200703242053.33166.chromatic@wgz.org - 63056FDE-928D-42E8-ABB2-7DB8F8DB8116@verizon.net - 200703271152.43603.chromatic@wgz.org - Pine.LNX.4.62.0703271508130.26142@fractal.phys.lafayette.edu - Pine.LNX.4.62.0703260941230.7017@fractal.phys.lafayette.edu - 200703242053.33166.chromatic@wgz.org - 63056FDE-928D-42E8-ABB2-7DB8F8DB8116@verizon.net - 200703271152.43603.chromatic@wgz.org - Pine.LNX.4.62.0703271508130.26142@fractal.phys.lafayette.edu - 200703240838.26776.chromatic@wgz.org - 12DE361B-1764-4B1A-8506-8A7BBBF16E40@verizon.net - 200703242053.33166.chromatic@wgz.org - 63056FDE-928D-42E8-ABB2-7DB8F8DB8116@verizon.net - 200703271152.43603.chromatic@wgz.org - Pine.LNX.4.62.0703271508130.26142@fractal.phys.lafayette.edu - Pine.LNX.4.62.0703260941230.7017@fractal.phys.lafayette.edu posters: - email: doughera@lafayette.edu name: Andy Dougherty - email: jkeen@verizon.net name: James E Keenan - email: chromatic@wgz.org name: chromatic subject: '[PATCH] Hints must come early in Configure.pl' summary: |- Andy Dougherty explained that hints need to come before inter/progs.

Now accepting proposals. summary: |- Jesse Vincent announced the Perl 6 Microgrants program. Leon Brocard, representing the Perl Foundation's grants committee, will work with Jesse to select proposals for projects. Grants are for 500 USD. Proposals should be for projects which can be completed in 4-6 calendar weeks. Tim Bunce suggested that someone could create a tool which could parse that Java files which define the JDBC API and generate Perl 6. He did not want to submit the proposal himself, but hoped someone would take it up. There were a few comments on this suggestion. Phil Crow had some interest in the idea. - date_from: 1174578743 date_to: 1174578743 hidden: part of BEAF017A-91AA-4F14-AE05-2595028C99C4@bestpractical.com message_id: 200703221551.l2MFpC4I009528@smtp.sunflower.com posters: - email: philcrow@sunflower.com name: philcrow subject: 'Re: Re: Perl 6 Microgrants.
