At that point I'm hoping the library will be in a "near final" state. I'm anticipating having that ready early next week.

As far as a roadmap is concerned, here's how I see it for now:
- 1.1.1d release next week
- final code scrubbing/annotation, fix any issues resulting from testing
- after suitable testing period (hopefully other people than just me ), an "RC" (release candidate) version will be posted
- if no issues found, final release made sometime in October

Thanks for the mention, I am glad that this command will be included. I humbly suggest the name LSSR (for List Subsequence Reversal).

I have been very busy lately but I have been playing around with various library commands and have come up with a few observations. I will try to collect my thoughts and PM you soon, but there is one suggestion I will make here.

Basically it is a mirror image of LPOP which returns the last item in the list on level 1, and the rest of the list on level 2. The Goferlists commands Last and Init together do this but Init is very slow. The User RPL sequence 1. OVER SIZE 1. - SUB is faster.

Thanks again for all your efforts, looking forward to the next version.
