What do you mean by the above exactly? That (require 'asdf) should work everywhere? Or do you mean that (require 'foo) should try to asdf-load foo everywhere? The latter seems more controversial, since implementations may have already decided they want to do something else with require and provide. best, r _______________________________________________ asdf-devel mailing list [email protected] http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/asdf-devel
