@abcdw did you just demo #nvim and #nrepl with ares-nrepl at the end of your talk? It looked like Conjure?
That would be brilliant! @ekaitz_zarraga itz_zarraga
Interested in #declarative computing, #linux or #reproducible software? #Guix is going to be at #FOSDEM for lots of goodness on #guile #scheme and the #nix approach to packaging #FreeSoftware - check out the talks various people are giving:
https://guix.gnu.org/blog/2026/meet-guix-at-fosdem-2026/
As usual the Declarative and Minimalist computing track will have lots of interesting #lisp #spritely and #nrepl talks!
The first alpha release of #nREPL 1.6 is out https://github.com/nrepl/nrepl/releases/tag/v1.6.0-alpha1
So far it's mostly improvements (simplifications) of the internals, but that's never a bad thing. In my book simplicity and reliability are very strong related. :-)
We've kicked off some efforts to create a proper nREPL protocol specification https://github.com/nrepl/spec.nrepl.org/pull/1
Input and feedback from everyone who uses #nREPL is most welcome!
I'm happy to report that #nREPL 1.5 is out with many small improvements. (see https://github.com/nrepl/nrepl/releases/tag/v1.5.0 for all the details) In this particular release we address several small long-standing issues, so I can only hope everyone's experience with nREPL 1.5 will be a little bit better!
nREPL 0.1 was released 15 years ago (on Oct 8, 2010) and we're still going strong after so many years!
#nREPL is now 15 years old! (it was born in July 2010) Funny enough, I've been the project's steward for ~7.5 years - since the spring of 2018. It was been quite the journey and I'm very happy that nREPL is still as relevant today as it was back in 2010. (and a lot more capable, of course)
The next release (1.4) is just around the corner.
#Clojure forever! In the REPL we trust!
Great news, everyone! There’s finally a rebel-readline client for #nREPL! See https://github.com/bhauman/rebel-readline/tree/master/rebel-readline-nrepl for details.
Guile and RDE Intenships.
RDE applied for GSoC 2025 as a mentoring organization. The results will be on February 27.
I put the list of the project ideas here:
https://trop.in/rde/internship
However, GSoC is not the only way to do the internship. We have some funding contributed by our community members https://opencollective.com/rde and can arrange an internship regardless. Just contact me or drop a message on rde-discuss for details.

Guix Social next Thursday (January 16th). There will be a talk by @abcdw about his Guile Scheme IDE for Emacs, and the underlying Nrepl project that can be used by any editor. For all the details:

Andrew also has many other projects, including RDE an extension to Guix. Come along and ask him questions!
