Hi,
I'm interested in using IOLib for network programming and was wondering what its status is. It doesn't currently work on my system (Ubuntu 7.10, SBCL 1.0.12, 64bit) for a variety of reasons. I could probably fix some of these things but first I'd like to know wheter IOLib is still alive, what the current plans are and which version of it is supposed to work. I tried the current darcs stuff with the development version of CFFI. I'd also like to understand the relationship to osicat, which was mentioned on the mailing list.
iolib is almost ready for a new release: at the moment I'm polishing the API then I'll write some docs. I hope to release in a couple of weeks but first we must for Babel to stabilise(it still has a few bugs at the moment)
anyway, if you want to play with it, you must install SERIES, split-sequence, trivial-gray-streams and RT(for the tests) plus the following live sources - some darcs, some git:
darcs get http://common-lisp.net/project/alexandria/darcs/alexandria darcs get http://common-lisp.net/~sionescu/repos/trivial-features darcs get http://common-lisp.net/~sionescu/repos/babel darcs get http://common-lisp.net/~sionescu/repos/cffi git clone http://common-lisp.net/~sionescu/repos/osicat.git git clone http://common-lisp.net/~sionescu/repos/iolib.git
