[plt-dev] Re: promoting unstable libraries
My proposals:
-- unstable/list --
The following should move:
- list-prefix?
- check-duplicate
I think they should go in scheme/list.
-- unstable/syntax --
The following should move:
- define/with-syntax
- with-syntax*
- format-symbol
- format-id
- syntax-local-eval
- internal-definition-context-apply
These could all go into scheme/base, since they're all related to
other procedures already in scheme/base. Or (some/all) could go into a
new library. Thoughts?
