Hello world, There are 2 things I would like to discuss: - To ease 'group' management of the cl packages I would like to use some Version Control System. The main requirements are: * should work with big archives (cmucl) * should support a three-way merge (original, debianised version, new upstream) * can tag releases * off-line use would be great Does anyone have strong ideas about any of the newer systems? I know that the merge is a pain with CVS, so I'm willing to use something else... - Ubuntu: I've setup a MOTUCommonLisp team[1 that could take care of the ubuntu related packages and bugs. It should be a lot easier to get changes and new packages uploaded into ubuntu then it should be into Debian, so I encourage anyone who also uses ubuntu to also become a member. Their main plan[2] is to keep syncing with debian until the 6th or the 7th of July and then 'freeze' and do fixes for a while. So any packages we would like to have as a part of breezy should either go in before the 6th (which is difficult to tell because it depends on how fast the NEW queue works) or we should get it in as an independent package. Any packages are candidates? I will try to get the new cmucl in sid as soon as they release. The pre1 package seems pretty stable enough that the release one should present no problem. cl-aspectl could be part of it, if the license problem gets resolved. Any other open issues? 1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTUCommonLisp 2: http://udu.wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyReleaseSchedule Groetjes, Peter -- signature -at- pvaneynd.mailworks.org http://www.livejournal.com/users/pvaneynd/ "God, root, what is difference?"
