[cl-debian] [ann] [cdr-announce] Initial period for CDR 3 prolonged.
by Pascal Costanza 21 Nov '06

21 Nov '06

Since the cdr-discuss mailing list is only a few days old, and on request by the author, we have prolonged the initial period before finalization of CDR 3 "Revisiting CONCATENATE-SEQUENCE" by Christophe Rhodes until January 15, 2007. Christophe Rhodes welcomes discussions about this CDR at cdr-discuss to which he is subscribed himself. Please mention CDR 3 in the subject line in your postings about this CDR.

[cl-debian] Bug#399526: cl-gd: Also wrap functions to create an image from in-memory data
by Pierre THIERRY 20 Nov '06

20 Nov '06

Package: cl-gd Version: 0.5.1-1 Severity: wishlist The 2.0.21 version of GD added a gdImageCreateFrom*Ptr family of functions "which make it convenient to load an image in any GD-supported format directly from memory". As I store images in variables that I would like to modify with GD, it would be helpful if those functions were wrapped. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (501, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-k7 Locale: LANG=fr_FR@euro, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR@euro (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages cl-gd depends on: ii cl-uffi 1.5.17-1 Universal Foreign Function Library ii common-lisp-controller 6.6 This is a Common Lisp source and c ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgd2-xpm 2.0.33-5.1 GD Graphics Library version 2 cl-gd recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- nowhere.man(a)levallois.eu.org OpenPGP 0xD9D50D8A

[cl-debian] [ann] [cdr-announce] Some changes to the Common Lisp Document Repository.
by Pascal Costanza 19 Nov '06

19 Nov '06

Hello everybody, Based on the constructive feedback we have got on the CDR process so far, we have made some changes to CDR as follows. + First, due to the fact that the CDR process has been described as CDR 0 which has already been finalized, strictly speaking we aren't allowed to make changes to CDR anymore. We have solved this by resubmitting the CDR process itself as CDR 4. You can find the new version at http://cdr.eurolisp.org/document/4/ together with the changes compared to CDR 0 (which are also described below). Since we expect more suggestions for improvement in the near future, we use an exceptionally long initial period for CDR 4 until November 1, 2007. This allows us to make changes as we go along. At the same time, the CDR process in use will already be CDR 4. This means that the CDR process for submitted CDRs until then will be somewhat unstable, but we think that this gives us the advantage of being able to experiment a little such that the final result will hopefully be a better tested process. Consider this equivalent to the bootstrapping of a metacircular software architecture, or to the development of any new piece of software for that matter, where you have to test and change things as you go as well. ;) + We have added more details about submission of accompanying material, especially with regard to licenses that give us the right to publish it at the CDR website and related publications. We forgot about this issue in CDR 0. + We have added a section where we ask authors and submitters to provide rationales for changes they have made during the initial period. From now on, we also intend to add archives of previous versions of a CDR for better traceability of such changes. + We have added a mailing list cdr-discuss - see http://common- lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cdr-discuss for the mailing list page. This mailing list is supposed to be used for discussions about specific CDRs. This is especially useful when CDRs are in their initial period, but may also be useful afterwards. The already existing cdr-devel is purely for discussions about issues related to CDR itself (that go beyond the scope of what is described in CDR 0 and CDR 4). We hope that these changes address the suggestions we have got so far. Best, Pascal -- Pascal Costanza, mailto:pc@p-cos.net, http://p-cos.net Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Programming Technology Lab Pleinlaan 2, B-1050 Brussel, Belgium _______________________________________________ cdr-announce mailing list cdr-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cdr-announce _______________________________________________ announcements site list announcements(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/mailman/listinfo/announcements

Hi Maintainer, I disagree with you that swank-openmcl.lisp is GPL, as you say in debian/copyright. The file itself says LLGPL. -- bye Joerg === If you don't understand why your files were rejected, or if the override file requires editing, reply to this email.
