But if you agree to the principle, then further development (barring urgent bug fixes) can move to a new asdf-bundle repository, and there will be fewer merge headaches.

That would either mean that ECL users have to replace (require :asdf) with (require :asdf-bundle) to use its features, or (require :asdf) could somehow be mapped to a bundle that includes the equivalent of (asdf:load-system :asdf-bundle) or maybe (asdf:load-system :asdf-contrib), including other contribs such as asdf-encodings. Hopefully the future asdf-bundle to be will support this kind of setups. Or then again, maybe I should be working on XCVB instead. In any case, I have created these repos: ssh://common-lisp.net/project/asdf/git/asdf-bundle.git ssh://common-lisp.net/project/asdf/git/asdf-contrib.git aka git://common-lisp.net/projects/asdf/asdf-bundle.git git://common-lisp.net/projects/asdf/asdf-contrib.git —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org Does artillery violate the natural rights of the target? I would say: the entire *purpose* of artillery is to violate the natural rights of the target. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
