The source tarball is available from ftp://ftp.gwydiondylan.org/pub/gd/src/gwydion-dylan-2.3.9.tar.gz Binary versions will appear on the FTP server during the next few days. This is probably the last release of the unstable development tree, and the basis for version 2.4, which shall be a high-quality stable release. Besides the obvious ton of bugfixes, 2.3.9 provides each-subclass slots, a rudimentary network library, greatly improved common-dylan compliance, better performance, increased debuggability, updated documentation and all that. This version comes with the quality assurance library and tests kindly provided by Functional Objects. Gwydion Dylan provides two implementations of the Dylan programming language: Mindy and d2c. Mindy is bytecode compiler and interpreter, and d2c is a Dylan-to-C compiler. Mindy compiles programs quickly, but the resulting executables run slowly. On the other hand, d2c compiles programs slowly, but they run quickly, at up to the speed of comparable C code. Ports of Gwydion Dylan are available for all modern platforms. Gwydion Dylan was originally written by the Gwydion Group at CMU as part of a research project studying advanced hypercode development environments. It is now maintained by a group of volunteers.
