[admin] Cello, too?
by Kenny Tilton 09 Nov '03

09 Nov '03

One of the admins suggested my SourceForge approach of splitting Cello off as a separate project made sense to him for common-lisp.net as well. It does make sense, since one can use Cells in non-GUI apps--I did so with my RoboCup client, whose only I/O is via sockets. So I would like to formally request a separate Cello project on common-lisp.net. kenny -- http://tilton-technology.com Why Lisp? http://alu.cliki.net/RtL%20Highlight%20Film Your Project Here! http://alu.cliki.net/Industry%20Application

In the interest of keeping our users happy, do you (Nikodemus) think we should go ahead and create the Cello project given that it's basically the same as Cells (with regards to license etc.) and given the fact that Mario approved Cells?

Hi. I am trying to ftp up my first release. I opened common-lis.net, cd'ed to /pub/project/cells, but when I: ftp> put cells031108.zip I get "553 Anonymous users may not overwrite existing files" Makes sense, but how do I login? I see "anonymous only" when I: ftp> open common-lisp.net I tried supplying "ktilton" at the username prompt but it still logged me in anonymously, as promised. help. :) kenny -- http://tilton-technology.com Why Lisp? http://alu.cliki.net/RtL%20Highlight%20Film Your Project Here! http://alu.cliki.net/Industry%20Application

If he could assure me that it's not I'll see if there's something wrong with common-lisp.net's internet access that maybe won't allow us to get to him (doubt it). The common-lisp.net mailserver will try several more times for the next few days before giving up. Erik.

Attached is a message from a gentleman who has tried twice to sign up. Others have gotten in OK. I logged in as admin to see what I could see, but could not find any way to investigate, eg, by seeing rejected stuff.

Supplemental (and a weak attempt at humor on my part) I guess. Asdf-install is a distribution tool, that automatically handles dependencies, etc. It rocks the same way Debian's apt-get rocks -- though creating asdf-installable packages is a lot easier than making .debs. CVS is a revision control tool. For semi-decent docs look at http://www.cvshome.org/ , but note that if you would prefer Subversion, Arch, or any of the umpteen available other RC systems, send mail to clo-devel, and we'll see about it. Ob licenses: splendid! > Sounds good. Do you have any idea what content you want? What about > format? HTML? I think some more presentation-neutral markup would be best, so LaTeX springs to mind. OTOH, I think that even a tarball with a plain-text file for text, and images and whatnot for rest is quite ok as well: as long as the article is clearly structured in the text file we can then cram it into a structured format, and render that into html, dvi, ps and pdf. Cheers, -- Nikodemus
