Re: [libreplanet-discuss] List of free as in freedom programming language

[Isaac David]

It does purposefully contain programming language implementations though. For instance, the A+ language entry on that page doesn't even contain information on what language it's implemented in, which suggests that it was tagged with the "Software-development:programming-language" solely to indicate that A+ is a free programming language implementation. I checked my interpretation with the Guile and mit-scheme pages, both of which are tagget with "Software-development:programming-language" and "Programming-language:scheme" even though they are not primarily implemented in Scheme.

Is the FSD misusing those categories? Ambiguity kinda defeats the purpose of a semantic wiki.

That category in the wiki isn't supposed to be for implementations of languages, it's supposed to be for sorting everything by what language it was implemented in. For instance, the first result on that page, 0AD, is implemented in C++ and _javascript_, so it appears when you filter by those languages. The page you linked filters by all languages, so it has everything that has a language listed for it in the directory.
