Hi,

I'm a maintainer of the CFFI project on Common-Lisp.net.

I would like to, if possible, use the darcsweb[1] CGI script to allow browsing of the CFFI darcs repository over the web. The script is written in Python, and seems to require modules not present in the (old) version of Python on cl.net.

the only issue is that darcsweb requires python2.4 (or 2.3, i don't remeber exactly) and we've got 2.1.3 on cl.net. currently i'm not sure what the status of cl.net (if erik has already started the reinstall/setup he mentioned or net) and i'm not sure if it's worth the effort to upgrade python now. erik?

I'm not sure if the project webspace is set up to allow CGI execution---if doing so is not possible, then it should be pretty painless to set up one darcsweb installation for all darcs repositories on cl.net.

good idea.

If you would prefer to set up a server-wide installation, I can furnish the CFFI darcs repository configuration that would need to be in the darcsweb config.py. (I've also made some changes to the default stylesheet, that I'd like to use in this case as well).
