Not necessary for you to get the host yourself. Sorry to have been a little recalcitrant over the last week, but I have just started a new job with <https://status.im> which has been occupying my time. Erik Hülsmann, a CLF board member, rents <https://hetzner.de/> instances for his CRM company which he essentially donates to the CLF at less than costs, so spinning up a host is no problem. We have standardized on Debian over Ubuntu as it makes the licensing situation clearer when we need a “special case”.

If necessary, we would federate the `USER(a)common-lisp.net` domain. Currently we are running exim as the main MTA due to legacy concerns with mailman2 databases, but we wish to transition to a toplevel `postfix` that will work with the legacy `exim` for the `mailman2` app. > > I apologize for trying to rush this - I've got a lot of free time currently due to a lull in work going on at my current company. So I and the dev team are currently not doing much. I want to take advantage of the time while I can. Cool. Let’s take advantage of it. > > Let me know and I'll get this out the door ASAP. Can you please provide me with the public half of a contemporary-strength SSH keypair. We’ll set up a host, and communicate root@HOST via ip4/6 under separate cover. yours, Mark P.S. if you wanna find me online, let’s figure out a Discord rendezvous.

rsyncing the site pages?
by Raymond Toy 18 Jun '22

18 Jun '22

I used to be able to rsync the cmucl-site pages via something like: rsync -av rsync://common-lisp.net/pages/cmucl/cmucl-site/public/ pages This produces an error now: rsync: change_dir "/cmucl/cmucl-site/public" (in pages) failed: No such file or directory (2) I assume this is related to the move to cmucl.common-lisp.dev for the site. Is there a new path for rsync? Is this the correct path: rsync://cmucl.common-lisp.dev/pages/cmucl/cmucl.common-lisp.dev/public (I determined that by trial and error.) -- Ray

User web pages?

It's been a while, but I thought that common-lisp.net/~rtoy would bring up my personal pages. Is this no longer supported? Or is the URL different now? -- Ray

Community Forum: Discourse?
by Chris Moore 12 Jun '22

12 Jun '22

Hey folks - In CL's contribution list <https://common-lisp.net/contribute> one of the open items is for establishing a community forum. Coming from Elixir, much of the community has fallen under Elixirforum <https://elixirforum.com/>, with Rust <https://users.rust-lang.org/>, Clojure <https://clojureverse.org/>, and even recently Racket <https://www.reddit.com/r/Racket/comments/qqe4d6/racket_discourse/> opening their own Discourse forums. Altogether, I get a lot of use out of it w/ Elixir, and it seems to be a popular solution for establishing a community hub. They provide free hosted solutions for Open Source projects, which we can infer Racket received based on their URL. I can discuss with the Discourse team what our options are given there is no real Common Lisp open source project. If all else fails I can check out self-hosted solutions as $100/month is pretty hefty. If no one has already begun work on a community forum, I can take this up. -- CHRISTOPHER MOORE moore.christopher515(a)gmail.com
