Hi Robert,

I'm all for it but know nothing about setting it up or running it.

I believe that c-l.net will do all the heavy lifting here. All we need to do is to ask for it to be set up, and then we can start recording tickets. The interested parties can login to subscribe to tickets and update them.

I think that's really it.

I don't see any particular win to actually using the wiki features; I'm just hoping the tickets would be helpful.

best, R

Would it be acceptable to set up trac for ASDF?

I just finished work on the manual for trac, and was going to take a look at some of the features issues that Nick Levine discovered, and it would make things much easier if some of these issues were available on a ticket system.

Wouldn't it make more sense to use launchpad, for the reasons of SBCL already using that, offloading work from clnet maintainers and more features?

Not for me, because I've never used launchpad, and don't know how to use it or set it up ;-)

Seriously, I'd be happy to help with trac if we want to use that as a ticket system. But I don't know anything about launchpad, and I wouldn't be doing anyone any favors by volunteering to help set up and maintain a system about which I'm ignorant.

If you or someone else want to get launchpad set up, I am all for it; it may well be the best solution. But I think trac would be a better solution than no ticket system, if we don't have anyone who will take ownership of the launchpad approach.

I'll wait to see how this shakes out.

Best, r

I submit that Gary is currently the only person with a vote that counts: he's doing the actual work on ASDF at the moment. If using bug-tracker X makes his life easier, it's good. If it doesn't, it's bad.

That said, _a_ bug-tracker would be good.

Cheers,
