I'm new to the mailing lists. I've just started reading all the Apocalypse and
Exegeses with the goal of becoming involved in some manner. One question I have is
whether there will be a change to matrix coding. I'd personally like to see a
simplification from the C coding. For example:

Rather than (or in addition to) the C style:

array[0][1][2] = 42;

change it to (or allow the use of) the simplification:

array[0,1,2] = 42;

Thank you for this consideration.

Sincerely,

Art Ramos

Try reading the Synopses first. :-)

The Apocalypses and Exegesis are no longer updated, and has diverged
considerably with the current spec.

@array[0;1;2] is the current syntax; see S09 for details.

Cheers,
