It +mainly conforms to the ANSI Common Lisp standard. CMUCL provides a +sophisticated native code compiler; a powerful foreign function +interface; an implementation of CLOS, the Common Lisp Object System, +which includes multi-methods and a meta-object protocol; a +source-level debugger and code profiler; and an Emacs-like editor +implemented in Common Lisp. CMUCL is maintained by a team of +volunteers collaborating over the Internet, and is mostly in the +public domain. + +New in this release: + * Known issues: + + * Feature enhancements + + * Changes + + * ANSI compliance fixes: + + * Bug fixes: + * ENCODE-UNIVERSAL-TIME accepts dates from 1899 if the final date + after accounting for time zones results in a positive + value. (See ticket #36.) + * CL:SLEEP no longer gets interrupted (See ticket #26.) + + * Trac Tickets: + + * Gitlab tickets: + * Ticket #36: encode-universal-time signals error + * Ticket #26: The cmucl that never sleeps + + * Other changes: + + * Improvements to the PCL implementation of CLOS: + + * Changes to building procedure: + + +This release is not binary compatible with code compiled using CMUCL +21b; you will need to recompile FASL files. + +See <URL:http://www.cmucl.org> or +<URL:https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/cmucl/cmucl> for more information, +See +<URL:https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/cmucl/cmucl/wikis/GettingCmucl> +for obtaining CMUCL, including sources and binaries.. + + +We hope you enjoy using this release of CMUCL!
