Is there a list of tasks and to-dos for the Common-Lisp.net website, maintenance, etc. I'd like to help in the interstitial moments of my time. I'm also still intending to figure out Round-up and get that to work on the site (unless someone prefers something else or thinks we should work with all CL solutions).
thanks,

Round-up as in the Python issue tracker?
No, there's not currently a public list. I have a private one but it's on my workstation at home. I think I remember most of it:
- move clnet to new server (in progress) - write app to make managing projects more decentralized - block admin list for non-subscribers (to avoid spam) - update frontpage so it's clear what we are and that there are more parts to the community than just us - compile a newer sbcl - make the projects.shtml an automatically updating page - make the 5-most-recent-projects on the front page automatically updated, too - make macho work again or remove the link to it - create statistics - number of users/projects (avg user per project, etc) - number of CVS operations - number of downloads per project - stick this number into a file which can be SSI included by the various projects if they feel like it - set up paypal link on the front page
And I'm probably forgetting something.
Help would be very much appreciated! I think probably in the area of mundane administration such as approving and creating projects so that users applying won't have to wait for one individual to do this (timezones etc.) although I'll certainly take help any way I can get it. I'll be busy preparing for the move to the new server the rest of this week but once that's complete we can start making a roadmap for how to proceed with the remaining tasks and which to do when.
Thanks, Erik.

Do you accept donations? Can you provide your PayPal address in the meantime?

I do but I have not (yet) registered a tax-exempt organization so you can't write them off. I'm not sure if this is a problem for most people or not but I should at least let you know.
The monthly cost of clnet in monetary terms is $75CAD/month (that's about $65USD) and one of my goals down the line was to see if the community as a whole could bear this instead of just one or two people. Currently clnet runs off of Mario's server but we're switching onto this $75/month box shortly.
Can you provide your PayPal address in the meantime?
Absolutely! erik.enge@gmail.com works just fine (it'll probably say Nordic Software, Inc. which is my company). Please let me know if you do not wish to be publically acknowledged as having contributed. I wasn't planning on posting the numbers but a list of names on common-lisp.net seemed appropriate.
Thanks, Erik.

No big deal, I couldn't write such a donation off anyway :)

No problem.
