[admin] Searching for home
by Hans Hübner 28 Mar '06

28 Mar '06

Hi there, I'm currently giving up my colocated server, therefore I'm looking for a new home for the BKNR repository. The details for the project are available at http://bknr.net/, but here's a short description as requested on your web site: Project Name is BKNR, we are developing a persistence solution with CLOS integration and XML import/export facilites. Our source code repository contains the base code as well as our project sources and the thirdparty software we use in our projects. We are moving towards asdf-installability, but this is not yet finished. Members of the project are Hans Hübner (me) and Manuel Odendahl. There are a few correspondents, but they are not currently committing code to the repository. All code is licensed under a BSD-style license. It'd be great if we could run our repository and the mailinglists under common-lisp.net! Thanks in advance, Hans P.S.: I do not currently have a GPG key, but if you need me to create one, I'll do so. Let me know what it would be used for.

[admin] New project to host: PythOnLisp
by Jeremy Smith 02 Feb '06

02 Feb '06

The project is an interface to run Python code and interact seamlessly with its environment, from Lisp. The name is a pun, the full name is technically "Python on Lisp". The license is probably BSD. I've done the groundwork, but I hope someone will contribute things such as a with-python macro, and tidy up the CFFI calls, etc. So far the code stands at 4kb, so it's lightweight. As for the hosting, I don't know anything about SVC, but I'll try and find out. Anyway, I look forward to having somewhere to put the project. I'll start uploading when/if you approve the application. :-) Regards, Jeremy. -- | Jeremy Smith BSc (Hons) | Chief Scientist, Decompiler Technologies | Member, British Computer Society | England

[admin] Project Creation Request: cl-semantic
by brandon.werner＠mac.com 31 Jan '06

31 Jan '06

Dear Common-Lisp: I would like to host a project on your site regarding writing a macro collection for extracting and generating relationships between information using semantic ontologies for the Semantic Web, which will be tested using MIT's Piggy Bank extraction project, of which I am a member. I am in the process of researching using Lisp to develop macros for generating and processing semantic data, particularly the processing of OWL & RDF vocabularies and establishing relationships faster using functional programming to rapidly generate ontological relationships. The exact idea is presented in a paper: “Building Ontological Data From Lists For Semantic Processing”, which is being readied for Conference on Information and Knowledge Management (CIKM 2006). It relies heavily on s-xml, cl-prevelance and cells. This will be of general interest since it will allow anyone using RDF/ OWL to "annotate" their websites to use these macros to parse and generate their ontological relationships faster. Parsing and creating these relationships will be even more incredible given Lisp's ability to manage large amounts of similar relationship atoms together in a relationship that can persisted on the back end without any framework code. So much research in the actual code implementation of OWL/RDF parsing is locked in to Algol thinking, and I believe it could be better represented, and give Lisp some good visibility, to try to tackle this problem from the functional perspective and build small light-weight parsing algorithms that can build on top of each other to establish relationships instead of the brute-force parsing now done in a top-down fashion using C++, C# and Java in the Simile project at MIT. Name: cl-semantic Researchers: Brad McDonald, Brandon Werner, Mike Ramsey Presentation in November 2006 of work: CIKM2006 conference License: Apache 2.0 license I also have other open source projects of high-visibility including Fatima (JavaPress) which is hosted on Java.net A full list of the work and research I've done and a link to my articles and publications can be found on my website.

This looks like a misconfiguration. I got this email although I'm not an admin of the munich-lisp mailing list. I am an admin of the rdnzl-cvs mailing list, though, which is also mentioned. Cheers, Edi.

[admin] / and /var mounted read-only
by Ian Eslick 29 Jan '06

29 Jan '06

I found myself unable to do cvs operations due to an error last night: can't create temporary directory /tmp/cvs-serv14017 Read-only filesystem I logged in and looked around and this appears to be due to an error of some kind that forced common-lisp.net to remount-ro the '/' and '/var' filesystems. I thought you should know in case you haven't heard about this from someone else yet as it probably effects all common-lisp.net projects. Thank you, Ian

Hi dear admin :} could you create me an account on common-lisp.net ? I've written some code for the BKNR project which has recently moved to your server, and I'd like to have svn rights for it (I can ask hans to confirm this). My PGP key is: pub 1024D/98CF742C 2004-12-25 uid Manuel Odendahl <manuel(a)bl0rg.net> sub 2048g/30A1C64A 2004-12-25 Thank you very much for your help and your time and everything :) Manuel

Hi! Erik Enge started a project 'usockets' some time ago. Much like uffi for ffi, this is to be the universally portable sockets implementation. I'd like to continue the effort as a project on c-l.net. Could you please assign me the usockets project name? Thanks in advance! bye, Erik.

[admin] Adding you to the elephant project...
by Robert L. Read 25 Jan '06

25 Jan '06

Dear Admin, I'm the maintainer of the elephant project. I would like to give Ian Eslick (copied on this note) the ability to commit code to the elephant cvs repository. I have read the common-lisp.net documentation (thanks!) but it is not clear to me if I should make him a member of the project via a request such as this one, or try to do the mentioned "passwordless commits" mentioned on the CVS FAQ page. Whatever is the simplest approach is fine with me. Ian can be a full project member, or he can just have cvs write ability. ---- Robert L.

[admin] Request for hosting
by Alan Shields 24 Jan '06

24 Jan '06

Dear Handsome and Talented CLNet Admins, Yeah, I'm asking a favor. ;-) As I have gone back to school, I will soon no longer have access to the current system I host my code off of. I would very much like to move the following projects: Araneida - Common Lisp webserver, released under BSD license. clsql-pg-introspect - toolkit for automatically defining clsql constructs for Postgres databases, released under LLGPL. rfc2109 - highly-RFC-compliant (well, or so we claim) cookie parsing and creation code. Released under BSD license. cl-taint - a perl-like taint library, for easy encapsulation of "do not trust external input" ideas. Preliminary, to be released under LLGPL. They are all currently hosted under darcs, and I would like to continue hosting them under darcs. Project Repo Size Release Directory Size ------------------------------------------------------ Araneida 6.2 M 2.5 M Araneida(test) 5.6 M n/a clsql-pg... 252 K 68 K rfc2109 476 K 232 K cl-taint 228 K n/a ------------------------------------------------------ Total size: ~16 MB I expect to split Araneida into Araneida and AAraneida (a toolkit) next release. Current traffic on the web hosting box for the code is about 350 MB per month. Thank you very much for your time and consideration, Alan Shields -- "There are three roads to ruin; women, gambling and technicians.
