Proposal: project pages deployment through GitLab
by Erik Huelsmann 18 Nov '20

18 Nov '20

Hi all, As you all have noticed, I've been working to clean up common-lisp.net and simplifying the administration process. One of the things we have done is that we implemented a deployment pipeline for the common-lisp.net main site using GitLab. It's been a great joy to work with it so far and made deployment of new site content easier than ever before. *My proposal is to set up a GitLab CI based deployment pipeline* for *all common-lisp.net <http://common-lisp.net> projects*. Meaning that I'm proposing to import the current project pages (/project/*/public_html) into GitLab repositories (<project-name>-site) with a gitlab-ci file which causes the content to be published. The approach above will mean simple import of the existing static content. However, after import, the static output can be replaced by different input and a static content generator, just like we did with the common-lisp.net site. Eager to hear your thoughts, Erik.

Mailman error when visiting lists
by Raymond Toy 30 Aug '20

30 Aug '20

I navigated to https://common-lisp.net/independent-lists and clicked on small-cl-src. This produces the following error: Bug in Mailman version 2.1.23 We're sorry, we hit a bug! Please inform the webmaster for this site of this problem. Printing of traceback and other system information has been explicitly inhibited, but the webmaster can find this information in the Mailman error logs. I tried a few others and got the same error. -- Ray

We would potentially be interested in hosting the ASDF CI on common-lisp.net with gitlab CI. We would have to work out the kinks with using commercial CL implementations including reaching out to Allegro and LispWorks for proper licensing. Providing CI containers for tuned for ANSI CL implementations has long been on our desired features, so this would line up well with where we want to push the services offered by common-lisp.net. It would take an unknown amount of work to provide this service to ASDF provided by an unspecified number of volunteers, but given the importance of ASDF to everyone, I believe we could attract a decent amount of help. If there is a decent alternative with Travis or some other service, and just getting things running again rather than being a guinea pig for new services is your priority, then please pursue that path. We have a CLF board meeting this Wednesday at 1900 UTC where I could advance such an idea, and we could coordinate on reaching out to the commercial vendors for (hopefully free) licensing term details. CLF board meeting attendence is more or less open to those who wish to attend via GOOG meet. Either drop me a mail, or stop by #common-lisp.net to get the connection details. -- "A screaming comes across the sky. It has happened before but there is nothing to compare to it now."
