So should you really write that package, or should you stop worrying and
learn to love emacs-devel? Listen to my talk to find out more!

+# Discussion
+
+- I can imagine using bindat to improve Emacs's music player packages e.g. reading/writing metadata tags
+- I hadn't heard of Poke until today
+- Curious: how is gnu poke more flexible?
+- I was surprised to see that a whole new DSL was developed for poke from scratch.
+- I'll ask what I also asked Andrea earlier: What hobbies/interests do you have besides Emacs (and PL)? :)
+- Do you think would have been better to develop/improve a library like bindat on top of an existing language instead?
+- What are some of your favorite talks from this conf so far?
+- If you ever write a library for window management in Emacs, you could call it winnie.el :)
+- How do you see more control over types (type hints/decl through type specifiers etc) (SBCL like programming model) coming into Elisp?
+- Do you plan to add bit-level support?
+- I think this is classic problem that is almost impossible to accomplish
+ - many libraries try to do that but in the end the only working ones are relaying on C compilers
+- also you have the problem of size of objects
+- like how big is a long?
+- this is not specified and is arch dependent
+- parsing a generic .h file is way more difficult
+- yep, the automatic translation is more for libraries trying to write automatically C bindings
