A few things:
1) How do I subscribe to slime-devel? I'm not sure that I have anything to contribute, but I like knowing what's going on :-)
You can subscribe to the mailing list via the web interface at http://common-lisp.net/mailman/listinfo/slime-devel. Alternatively, you can read via NNTP at news://news.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.slime.devel
Ok!
2) swank-sbcl does
(require 'sb-bsd-sockets) and (require 'sb-introspect)
These are asdf packages, and require won't be able to find them unless asdf itself is in the SBCL image; in other words, they should be preceded by
(require 'asdf)
Apparently in more recent SBCLs ASDF will auto-load. Here's what Christophe Rhodes said:

Hum... that seems to be the case here, too... Does that mean I have a properly-installed SBCL? Joy!
(Actually, that was in reply to an earlier mail from you, but it seems your address you fell off the CC-list.)
3) I've been seeing these errors (or something similar) for a few days now:
: You have encountered a bug in SLIME.
We had a similar report recently:
http://common-lisp.net/pipermail/slime-devel/2003-November/000070.html
It seems you're running an older version of the Elisp code that the CL backend that it talks to. Possibly there's an old byte-compiled slime.elc being loaded instead of the latest code?
Yup. Could even be that I had forgotten to re-load slime; I'm in the habit of keeping my Emacs running for months. I started up a fresh XEmacs, and slime works like a charm. Now that I have actually been able to play aound a little with SLIME, I have just one thing to say: AWESOME. I don't normally use font-lock, but I *may* have to start using it (with SLIME, at least). -- Raymond Wiker Mail: Raymond.Wiker@fast.no Senior Software Engineer Web: http://www.fast.no/ Fast Search & Transfer ASA Phone: +47 23 01 11 60 P.O.
