Hello from mainline

[fasterthanlime]

I'm just now discovering all your work - already cherry-picked e9100a3 to fix ooc-lang#774 but I'm sure there's a lot of good stuff that we can merge back to mainline if you want to.

Can we discuss this here? Or on the mailing list? Let me know.

Cheers,

TODO:

• Merge 30b9006 w/test case

For #1, I came up with a much shorter fix, look into ooc-lang#789 if you're curious. Everything is merged now.

In the future, can we agree on a protocol when you have issues relevant to mainline? I don't want to hinder the effort on your side - it's cool if you want to take rock in different directions, let's just try and continue sharing issue reports / fixes when we can.

Perhaps some of your more radical ideas could be adopted in mainline too, who knows :)

Sure, It's great to be able to help the development of rock.
I will report issue to mainline and open a pull request if any fix is ready.
