Stas has alienated long-time ASDF maintainer Robert Goldman

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/Common_Lisp

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • cl-ppcre

    Common Lisp regular expression library

  • That thread is not complete context; see also e.g. https://github.com/edicl/cl-ppcre/pull/30 and https://github.com/edicl/cl-fad/pull/24.

  • flexi-streams

    Flexible bivalent streams for Common Lisp

  • Context: https://github.com/edicl/flexi-streams/issues/25

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • cl-fad

    Portable pathname library for Common Lisp

  • That thread is not complete context; see also e.g. https://github.com/edicl/cl-ppcre/pull/30 and https://github.com/edicl/cl-fad/pull/24.

  • portable-condition-system

    A portable Common Lisp condition system

  • That's what modern ASDF attempts to do, e.g. with package-inferred systems - system definitions are based on reading DEFPACKAGE and UIOP:DEFINE-PACKAGE forms without executing them. Still, that depends on people having standalone DEFPACKAGE and UIOP:DEFINE-PACKAGE forms that aren't e.g. generated by MACROLET or SYMBOL-MACROLET which famously require code execution for the forms to be created - and even I wrote code that uses macros to generate package forms.

  • sbcl

    Mirror of Steel Bank Common Lisp (SBCL)'s official repository (by death)

  • I can point to my patch which is actually from 2018. Often I just fix things for myself and don't report to anyone else (maybe remark on IRC sometimes when relevant), but in this case, it obviously wasn't just me who had issues with these warnings: just look at the threads under discussion. At some point they got added and systems which worked for years got "broken". It wasn't stassats who broke them, it was ASDF. Patches for some of them were written to "restore order", and stassats chose not to merge them.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
