Hello,
To release a small library, I was looking for a good way to host it. Setting up my own hosting and repository looked like a lot of bother, so I write you asking if it would be possible to put it at common-lisp.net. It's a very small UTF-8 encoding and decoding library, predictably named trivial-utf-8, whose purpose is mostly to act as a more efficient alternative to the character encoding functions that unicode-aware implementations offer (its string-to-octets equivalent beats SBCL's version by a factor 10, mostly by being less general-purpose). This can be valuable in things like webservers and database interfaces that would like to communicate with others in utf-8 without becoming horrifyingly sluggish. I'm releasing it under a BSD license, and would prefer to put it in a darcs repository.
Enclosed is my gpg public key.
Regards, Marijn Haverbeke
Done.
