The complexity of the registry configuration is one reason why I added the ~/quicklisp/local-projects/ mechanism.
Right, so I don't see why there's such a huge objection to having a similar mechanism for ASDF. Stellian suggests using ~/quicklisp/local-projects/. So why is it wrong for ASDF to have a local-projects directory? All I am suggesting is to have the local projects directory for ASDF be visible, instead of invisible. I stand corrected about using a name that the user might have already had (thanks, Pascal!) but I don't yet see a solution that's as easy as a default directory location. Cheers! r -- Robert P.
