> Again, as a "proof of research" take a look at : https://github.com/VictorTaelin/Interaction-Type-Theory that's 3 year old, pre-dates Fable, but OMG doesn't look like a paper.

Yes, it doesn't look like a paper at all. I can see the idea, and it's an interesting idea, but no proofs that it works, no measurements, and no proper citations.

Nobody claims Victor hasn't done a lot of research. But academically inclined people typically expect claims to be substantiated either formally or empirically or both.

A complete implementation have been released, how is that not a substantiation?

Academic people might have more trust in a paper which when through a lengthy publication process. But if you think about it, it's not a better proof than a direct access to the thing. It used to be hard to try out software but with modern tech it literally takes minutes...
