The FAQ and Trac and other stuff
by Raymond Toy 13 Mar '25

13 Mar '25

Since there was a discussion about rsync and stuff, I looked at the Project Hosting <https://common-lisp.net/project-intro>, there’s a mention about Trac. I thought Trac was basically not available anymore except the instance is still running for old projects that had it. Mostly for historical reasons. I am grateful that Trac is still running because I have had to look back on some old cmucl Trac tickets to understand some changes. I also found the new page about CI for CL <https://common-lisp.net/faq/using-gitlab-ci-for-cl>. That looks pretty cool. I would certainly be interested to see the scripts. And the last sentence on that page is missing some links or something: For more information, please make sure to read and .

rsync support
by Carl Shapiro 12 Mar '25

12 Mar '25

Dear common-lisp.net administrators, We had been relying on rsync to transfer artifacts for the cmucl.org website from common-lisp.net. The script, which did this periodically rsync -aqvz rsync://common-lisp.net/project/cmucl/downloads/ . now times out. I tried referencing the host gitlab.common-lisp.net but that seems to have no effect. Is there a new host I should? Kindly, Carl

cmucl project directory 404
by Raymond Toy 05 Mar '25

05 Mar '25

I can’t seem to reach https://common-lisp.net/project/cmucl anymore. I could yesterday. In fact, it seems like perhaps all the project directories are unreachable, but I only tried a few at random.

GraphQL error: Field 'troubleshootJobWithAi' doesn't exist on type 'Pipeline'
by Raymond Toy 17 Feb '25

17 Feb '25

Look at this pipeline <https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/cmucl/cmucl/-/merge_requests/265/pipelines>. Part way down, there appears an expand button with the label "Failed jobs". This seems new. Anyway, I clicked the button and I get the GraphQL error in the subject line. I guess this new thing (?) isn't working quite right. But I probably don't need AI to tell me what I screwed up in the CI job. :-) At least in this pipeline.

Fwd: asdf-devel@common-lisp.net post from monacoandrea94@gmail.com requires approval
by Robert Goldman 01 Feb '25

01 Feb '25

I received the following overnight. However, when I logged into the Postorious site, there were no held messages for me to release. Not only were there no messages to release, this message seems to have been discarded, since I never received a copy of it from the mailing list. Any chance this is related to the recent discussion of spam filtering?

How to deal with mailing list ownership & moderators & spam to the lists?
by Erik Huelsmann 01 Feb '25

01 Feb '25

Hi, Daily, my mailbox is bombarded with mails reminding me to moderate mailing list traffic on common-lisp.net. On occasion I have acted on these messages, if I saw one come by where genuine traffic was held. Most of the time, they are mails trying to sell eBikes and other junk, though. While I haven't acted much on them, they do present distraction, both of genuine mail traffic as well as in my mind. I want to remove that distraction. Out of curiosity, I picked the last reminder I received this morning. It was from cells-devel@ . There are no moderators, which means that reminders go to the owners: Kenny Tilton and cl-net root@ (that is: Mark Evenson, Dave Cooper, Philipp Marek and me). There is a list of 333 moderations waiting. Accumulated between August 2024 and today. Actual list traffic: 1 mail in 2020 (without response!) and the last one before that was from 2012. The before-last reminder was to cffi-devel@. There 113 moderations are waiting. Last and before-last active mail threads (including replies) are from 2023 and 2021 respectively. Owner of the list are Luis Oliveira and root@; again, no moderators. Conclusion: Although not as bad as with cells, nobody is acting on these reminders for cffi-devel either. The one before that: cl-opengl-devel@. Same story: 95 waiting moderations, most recent mail threads from 2022 and 2020. So, I see the following options (other than adding mail filters which simply delete these things on my side): 1. Remove root@ from the list of owners -- which presumably means root@ can't help with admin tasks for these mailing lists anymore 2. Copy the owners - excluding root@ - to the moderators so the flow to root@ stops 3. Forcibly set mailing lists to drop non-member posts - the current default seems to be to hold for moderation Additionally, we could archive (remove submission possibility) for mailing lists which haven't received a single post for more than 5(?) or 7(?) or ... years. I'm looking for the best way forward for common-lisp.net here, not for my personal mailbox. What do you say? -- Bye, Erik. http://efficito.com -- Hosted accounting and ERP. Robust and Flexible.

CL Foundation docker images
by Robert Goldman 29 Jan '25

29 Jan '25

Now that the cl.net git infrastructure has been refreshed, would it be a good time to refresh the CL foundation lisp images? I have sort of figured out how to update the Dockerfiles, but I don't understand how the buildpack works, and the infrastructure that actually does the building and uploads the images is also mysterious to me. Also, it seems like with Eric gone, there's no one to merge any updates into the git repos.

FYI: Messages about failed pipeline but pipeline hasn't actually failed
by Raymond Toy 26 Jan '25

26 Jan '25

Got the message below this morning about a pipeline from 3 weeks ago that failed. However, if you click the link on the pipeline, it actually passed 3 weeks ago but had failed before. (I think I had forgotten to restart my runners after a system update on that machine.) I got a similar message yesterday for the same pipeline. I think I've gotten a couple others recently, that I ignored, thinking I forgot to start the runners again. I don't remember getting such erroneous messages before, but my memory is not so good. Not sure if there's anything to be done, but I thought I'd bring it up in case some config or something got messed up in the recent move of the host. (Which has been working fine for me now.

Re: Fwd: Security alert for your reCAPTCHA key gitlab.clnet
by David Cooper 20 Jan '25

This is likely because I disabled omniauth in the gitlab.rb. I suppose I can reënable it. But we really need to find a lower-maintenance solution against spam registrations — my idea of keeping up with them manually was predictably naïve.

Request for email removal
by Robert Goldman 15 Jan '25

15 Jan '25

Will you please see if there are any emails that go to Elias Pipping <pipping.elias(a)icloud.com> from any mailing lists at common-lisp.net? Possible alternative address elias.pipping(a)fu-berlin.de Elias died some time ago and I have heard from his mother that he still gets emails, and she would like them cut off. Ideally, it would also be good if he could be removed from any gitlab watch lists, etc., as well (Elias Pipping, @epipping) Maybe you could just blacklist his address from outgoing mail? Thank you, Robert
