The translator will keep me busy for several more weeks.
After that I'll do some namespace improvements,
after consulting with this mailing list.
I don't have a long term plan.
I have a list of hundreds of possible improvements.
When I finish working on something, I grab something
new from the list.
The things I've done recently, such as EDS database,
or the translator, were not the result of long-term planning.
(Of course when I'm interviewed years from now, when
Euphoria is a huge success, I'll describe how
I planned each step in great detail.)
The future of Euphoria depends as much,
or more on what others, such as yourself do.
I only control the core language.
