Good news, everyone! It is time to announce the second Online Lisp Meeting.
This time, the speaker will be Michael Raskin of
[`agnostic-lizard`](https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/mraskin/agnostic-lizard)
fame; he will talk about **Query-FS: Integrating with UNIX from Common
Lisp via FS API**.
> The talk is about Query-FS, a virtual filesystem representing various
queries (for example, SQL queries to a database) as directories. There
will be a demo of what basic usage looks like, and an explanation of how
it works inside.
> Warning: while Query-FS is implemented is Common Lisp, its goal is
integrating with non-Lisp things across a POSIX-defined interface. It
probably makes little sense in an environment integrated around a single
program (such as Emacs). And some included DSLs even look vaguely
similar to Bash. So, it is a tool in Common Lisp for non-Lispy use.
As before, the talk will be pre-recorded and played back on Twitch, with
the ability to comment on the Twitch chat during playback. Afterwards,
we will have an online drink and chat on Jitsi.
Date/time/location:
* Date: 1st June 2020

Massive thanks to Marco Heisig for providing the Jitsi instance where we
can hang out after the talk.
A mailing list has been created for the purpose of organizing and
promoting the online talks. Further announcements will be posted there.

Everyone, please feel free and welcome to suggest your own ideas and
record something that you'd like to talk about and share - along with
times and dates when I should play them.
BR and see you - Michał "phoe" Herda
Hello!
First and foremost, massive thanks to all the organizers, all the
speakers, and all the participants of European Lisp Symposium 2020 - the
first and greatest fully online edition of the conference, surprisingly
nice and wonderful in its own unique way. The recordings are available
at https://www.twitch.tv/elsconf/videos
Since the new formula turned out to be good and we are still likely
going to be stuck in homes for the forthcoming weeks, I have decided to
start a more cyclic Lisp meeting that is smaller in programme but more
frequent in time, so we have more chances to meet and hang out with
members of our Lisp community - even if just via chat and webcams.
Similar to the ELS, the talk will be pre-recorded and streamed on Twitch
with live chat available during the talk. Then, everyone is invited to
participate in an online discussion and after-party on Jitsi with
webcams and microphones. We can hang out, chat, comment, gossip, have a
virtual drink, and make some plans for the next meetings.
I can bootstrap the series. I will talk about multiple independent
condition systems in a single Common Lisp image. I will use an example
where I want to integrate two distinct condition/restart systems under
one debugger: a host one provided by the Lisp implementation, and an
independent and portable condition system.
