#3461 Change: Hare Programming Language
Closed: Accepted by fale. Opened by amoloney.

Closed: Accepted
Reopen Issue

Introduce packages for Hare, a systems programming language designed to be simple, stable, and robust. Hare is still under development, the language, its standard library and its reference tool chain are still subject to breaking changes.

Owners, do not implement this work until the FESCo vote has explicitly ended.
The Fedora Program Manager will create a tracking bug in Bugzilla for this Change, which is your indication to proceed. See the FESCo ticket policy and the Changes policy for more information.

REMINDER: This ticket is for FESCo members to vote on the proposal. Further discussion should happen in the Discourse discussion linked above. Additional discussion may happen on the Fedora Devel mailing list.

Can I +1 the Change to add the compiler but put a caveat on it that I don't think this language is in any way ready for use in critical-path software? (I don't think there's any immediate risk of this, but I'd like to be on record as wanting a separate Change to allow its use for that.)

I think the Change page is pretty clear about the experimental status of the language. I don't think we need to worry about hare programs suddenly multiplying like rabbits on our systems.

I doubt that would happen too, it's not really worth it to go that far.
