[admin] hosting proposal for a gentoo common lisp overlay - admin@common-lisp.net - mailman3.common-lisp.net

7 Oct 2006


      Hi,
I'd like to host a Darcs repository for the Gentoo Common Lisp project
on common-lisp.net to provide Gentoo-using Common Lisp users an easy
way to contribute to the collection of Common Lisp libraries,
implementations and applications in Gentoo.
I am the original author and maintainer of the Gentoo Common Lisp
packages[1].  The collection includes packages for over 200 Common
Lisp libraries, implementations and applications.
While these packages have many users, I have been the only Gentoo
maintainer for it.  Unfortunately, with recent changes in my life, I
can no longer put enough time into the maintenance of these packages.
The barrier to contributing in Gentoo as an official maintainer is too
high or time consuming for most users.  Therefore, I'd like to create
a project to maintain the collection in a distributed version control
system outside of the official Gentoo project.  This should provide an
easy way for Gentoo users to contribute to our collection of Common
Lisp packages.
The CVS root in [1] gives and idea of what I would import into Darcs.
My name is Matthew Kennedy mkennedy@gentoo.org.
My GPG key ID is 0x401903E0.
The title of the project would be "The Common Lisp Portage Overlay".
The project name would be "portage-overlay".
The project license is "GPL v2"
Best regards,
Matt
