The Euphoria Standard Library (ESL) is meant as a supplement of the library that is included in the official release of the Euphoria programming language, created by RDS.

Development status

We are currently in the stage of discussing the road map of the project and considering what should be included in the first release.

Most major discussion considering the entire Euphoria community should be done on EUforum so that all opinions can be heard.
There is also an ESL section on UBoard for public discussions.
For discussion about the project there is also the ESL mailing list.
