When did the Dogelog Player Quantum Leap happen? (Was: There is no flesh and blood async Prolog!)

Show all headers | View raw

Hi,

When did the quantum leap happen in Dogelog Player?
Well very early on: The first binary release was here:

ANN: Dogelog Player 0.9.7
The new version 0.9.7 of the Dogelog
player now masters DCG.
Admin User, created 09/06/2025

And '$YIELD'/1 stuff came 9 months (sic!) later:

ANN: Dogelog Player 0.9.8
The Dogelog Player supports a new interpreter
that can relinquish control.
Admin User, created 21/03/2022

See for your self:

9 months, like Homo sapiens gestation period. (*)

LoL

Bye

(*) To be frank, it was the perfect pass time during
the COVID-19 pandemic.
