[admin] Request to host "beep": a UFFI interface to Beep Media Player
by Matthew Kennedy 09 Feb '05

09 Feb '05

Hi, I wrote a UFFI interface to the Beep Media Player (kind of like an XMMS 2). I think others might be able to make use of it too, so I am seeking project hosting at common-lisp.net. This library is licensed as GPL-2 (basically because that's what the application library it interfaces to is licensed as). I call the interface "beep". The source for it is temporarily available here (as .tar.bz2 and also extracted into a directory): http://dev.gentoo.org/~mkennedy/lisp/ I still have to upload the source for iso8601-date, but promise to finish that by the weekend :)) Matt -- Matthew Kennedy

Gents, OK, here is Peter Denno's key and email address. I am being sucked into a black hole of business/travel, so please coordinate with him in any way necessary to give him full access and control over cells-gtk mailing lists, ftp, and CVS. This may entail resetting passwords, which is fine, I cannot find them anyway. I will catch up via Peter down the road. cheers, kenny -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: cells-gtk Date: Mon, 07 Feb 2005 19:29:09 -0500 From: Peter Denno <peter.denno(a)nist.gov> Organization: National Institute of Standards and Technology To: Kenny Tilton <ktilton(a)nyc.rr.com> References: <4207E166.9040305(a)nyc.rr.com> Kenny, Don't you hate it when you go back to your notes to find the mnemonic that is supposed to remind you of a passcode... but now it looks like gibberish to you?

Gents, I would like to get Mr. Denno set up as a fellow project admin on the Cells-gtk project, including giving him cvs write access. What do we need to do? By the way, it seems I have done it again and can find no trace of the emails you sent informing me of various project passwords for cells-gtk. I would be amenable to you all working directly with Mr. Denno to get those reset. I will catch up later if necessary. cheers, kenny Peter Denno wrote: >Hi, > >I have a solution to the problem, but I am puzzled that a simpler solution >does not work.

[admin] write privileges to McCLIM for Peter Scott
by Robert Strandh 03 Feb '05

03 Feb '05

Hello, Could you please give write priviles to the McCLIM CVS tree for Peter Scott (who already has a common-lisp.net account with the name pscott) so that he can commit changes to the CLIM inspector?

[admin] Request for hosting for Thomas Russ's ISO8601 code
by Matthew Kennedy 03 Feb '05

03 Feb '05

Recently I noticed the Common Lisp code at http://www.pvv.ntnu.no/~nsaa/ISO8601.html for parsing and formating universal time values and ISO8601 date formats. I have emailed the author to determine what terms the software can be distributed under, and received the response that it is Public Domain. The response has been attached. I think it is worthwhile to make this code more publicly available (CVS/Arch, ASDF, an email contact for bug reports etc.) and am willing to become its maintainer. Therefore I am making a request for hosting at common-lisp.net. I suggest the project name: iso8601-date Details of the project: Maintainer: Matthew Kennedy <mkennedy(a)gentoo.org> Author: Thomas Russ <tar(a)isi.edu> Description: Common Lisp library of formatting and parsing ISO8601 dates. License: Public Domain I will be writing an ASDF for it and researching asdf-install upon uploading the code. Best regards, -- Matthew Kennedy

Hello, Vincent Arkesteijn (<vincent(a)arkesteijn.net>) has agreed to take over the maintenance of the CLIM inspector (Clouseau). For that reason, he will need write privileges to the McCLIM CVS tree.
