[Jprogramming] Tacit Expressions with Explicit J Syntax

[Eric Iverson]

Erling,

I have read your proposal briefly. I can't comment on the merit, but I can
definitely clarify that it is not in the spirit of the Interpreter/Requests
page.

That page is for straight forward proposals that are clearly and fairly
completely stated, that extend the language in obvious ways, with clear
benefit, and with minimal controversy. In particular it is for requests
that have a hope of being implemented in a timeline of months/years, not
decades.

Something could come of your ideas, but the Requests page is an appropriate
venue. I suggest you remove it from that page and perhaps start your own
wiki discussion page, or perhaps better yet a blog.

/Eric
