[admin] Request for new project hosting
by Daniel Dickison 12 Dec '07

12 Dec '07

I have a new Common Lisp project that I would like to request hosting for. It is called "cl-applescript" and it's a simple interface to AppleScript which currently supports CCL and SBCL. I'd like to apply a permissive BSD-style license for it. I currently have a project hosted on common-lisp.net called c2ffi under the username ddickison. If I could get cl-applescript hosted also, I feel it would have some value to the CL community. I am using darcs for version control so I wouldn't need CVS or SVN. Daniel

[admin] I'd like to host a paper on your web site
by Daniel Weinreb 29 Nov '07

29 Nov '07

Hi. My name is Dan Weinreb. I was one of the co-designers of Common Lisp, and co-founders of Symbolics. I am almost finished writing a paper called "Common Lisp Implementations: A Survey". I'd like to find a home for it on the web so that people can read it. Would it be possible to put it on your web site? Below, I have included the beginning of the paper so you can see what kind of thing it is. The text below is in "REST"; it will be automatically translated into HTML. Thank you. -- Dan Weinreb (dlw(a)alum.mit.edu) ----------------------------- ===================================== Common Lisp Implementations: A Survey ===================================== by Daniel Weinreb (dlw(a)alum.mit.edu) Version 1 There has been a new wave of interest in Common Lisp over the last few years. This paper is a November, 2007 survey of Common Lisp implementations that are currently being actively maintained. It also provides references to writings about why Lisp is interesting and important, Lisp textbooks, and useful Lisp resources including repositories of available libraries. I hope it will help you find the right implementation for your project or product. How did I pick the implementations to include in the survey? Research on the Internet showed that of all the implementations, some were full-fledged in their time, but have been abandoned for one reason or another, and some don't really count as being the Common Lisp dialect. There are ten real currently-maintained implementations. I judged this by seeing which implementations were currently being supported by prominent libraries and tools, by seeing whether there was active mail/news/etc. traffic about the implementation, by searching the web and asking around. Obviously this was something of a judgement call on my part. If I omitted any, it was certainly not on purpose. Please let me know if there are others. I did not run the implementations. I did not do any benchmark (performance) comparisons of runtime or compiler speed, and you'll find little in this paper about performance. I did not attempt to independently verify the answers to the survey. No organization endorses this paper. In particular, the web site on which you found this paper does not endorse it and bears no resposibility for its contents. I feel very confident that everybody who responded to the survey did so in good faith. Any errors are entirely my fault. Please send corrections to me. This survey only covers implementations of the Common Lisp dialect (ANSI Standard X3J13), not any other Lisp dialects, nor Scheme. The primary design work for the initial Common Lisp was mainly 1982, with the ANSI X3J13 standard following mainly in 1994, roughly speaking. Guy L. Steele Jr. was the editor of the initial specification. He, Dave Moon, Richard Gabriel, Scott Fahlman, and I were the primary designers, although of course the design drew very heavily on preceeding dialects. Papers about the history of Common Lisp are referenced below (see "Resources"). In my opinion, having multiple supported implementations of a language, rather than merely one canonical implementation, is a sign of a robust and vibrant language. There are many Java implementations (e.g. JRockit), many Python implementations (JPython, IronPython), and so on. These Common Lisp implementations do a very good job of meeting the official X3J13 language standard, and it's very easy, often no work at all, to make an application developed in one run in another if you stay within the defined language. These are the implementations, in alphabetical order: +----------------+---------+------------+----------------------------+ | Name | a.k.a. | License | Platforms | +----------------+---------+------------+----------------------------+ | Allegro CL | | Commercial | Linux, Unix, Mac, Windows | +----------------+---------+------------+----------------------------+ | Armed Bear CL | ABCL | GPL | Linux, Unix, Mac, Windows | +----------------+---------+------------+----------------------------+ | CMU CL | CMUCL | Open | Linux, Unix, Mac | +----------------+---------+------------+----------------------------+ | Clozure CL | OpenMCL | License | Linux, Unix, Mac | +----------------+---------+------------+----------------------------+ | Corman CL | | Commercial | Windows | +----------------+---------+------------+----------------------------+ | Embedded CL | ECL | LGPL | Linux, Unix, Mac, Windows | +----------------+---------+------------+----------------------------+ | GNU clisp | CLISP | GPL | Linux, Unix, Mac, Windows | +----------------+---------+------------+----------------------------+ | LispWorks | | Commercial | | +----------------+---------+------------+----------------------------+ | Scieneer CL | SCL | License | Linux, Unix | +----------------+---------+------------+----------------------------+ | Steel Bank CL | SBCL | License | Linux, Unix, Mac | +----------------+---------+------------+----------------------------+ My deepest thanks to everyone who responded to the survey: * Allegro CL: Kevin Layer * Armed Bear CL: Peter Graves * CMU CL: Raymond Toy * Clozure CL: Andrew Shalit * Embedded CL: Juan Jose Garcia-Ripoll * GNU clisp: Sam Steingold * LispWorks: Dave Fox * Scieneer CL: Douglas Crosher * Steel Bank CL: Nikodemus Siivola Thanks to Bruce Tate for permission to quote his paper.

Hi, Erik Enge thought I should forward this to you to see if you can handle it. I am not sure I ever had a mailman admin password, so I could moderate this Trac ticket away. It's clearly spam.

Hi. I've requested hosting for Plexippus XPath project some time ago. Thank you for registering the project. But what login info should be used to access it? Maybe I should send you my SSH public key?.. Thank you, Ivan

[admin] thanks, and question regarding ssh access
by Peter Eddy 21 Nov '07

21 Nov '07

Hi, First, thank you for approving my project: clouchdb, I'm eager to get everything set up. Regarding ssh access, I received passwords for the project email lists, but not for ssh access. Am I supposed to use my gpg key for ssh authentication, or should I have received ssh username/password information as well? I didn't see any information about what to expect in this regard in project info area of common-lisp.net. thanks, and I don't mean to rush anybody, I know this service is lower priority. - Peter Eddy

As far as I can tell, the only available documentation for cmucl is on your site. Is the outage long-term, or should I just be patient. Thanks much. John Collins University of Minnesota
