The Lispy project will now use an RSS feed to post news about significant updates to Lispy, new releases and also new packages available in the maps.

Added Lispy Mapping Guide

Sun, 23 Mar 2008 10:30:54 -0500

A mapping guide has been added to the site. It describes the structure of Lispy maps and repositories.

Hunchentoot 0.15.4, CL-FAD 0.6.2, CL-WHO 0.11.1, Drakma 0.11.5, Ironclad 0.25 and Archive 0.7.0

Automatic GPG Signature Verification Added

Wed, 02 Apr 2008 00:36:21 -0500

Initial support for validating map signatures automatically has been added to CVS. This support is implemented using the trivial-shell package, which I haven't tested on Windows yet.

GPGME-CL Support Replaces trivial-shell

Sat, 12 Apr 2008 12:18:21 -0500

It turns out that trivial-shell is not so portable, so while trying to create my own CFFI binding to GPGME I discovered GPGME-CL which is a CFFI binding to GPGME-CL included in the GPGME source archive itself!

Unfortunately GPGME-CL uses an AWK script to generate bindings when the rest of GPGME is built. This is no good for ASDF managing systems like Lispy and ASDF-Install, so a hopefully short-lived fork which parses the error code files in Lisp at compile time is included in Lispy: lispy-gpgme.tar.gz. All of this support is in CVS only.

Library Upgrades

Tue, 05 Aug 2008 23:33:08 -0400

FLEXI-STREAMS 1.0.5, CL-INTERPOL 0.2.1, CL-UNICODE 0.1.1, CL-PPCRE 2.0.0, Chunga 0.4.3, Hunchentoot 0.15.7

Edi Libraries Upgraded

Tue, 13 Aug 2009 00:00:00 -0400

Drakma 1.0.0 and Hunchentoot 1.0.0 were upgraded along with all of their dependencies. Bordeaux Threads was also added (recent Hunchentoot depends on it).

Upgraded everything else, CFFI 0.10.5 and GPGME

Sat, 15 Aug 2009 00:00:00 -0400

Everything in the official map has been checked and upgraded if necessary with most testing being conducted with SBCL 1.0.30 on 32-bit x86 GNU/Linux (Ubuntu 9.10 Alpha). One problem encountered is the CFFI 0.10.5 type mapping API has completely changed since 0.9.2. GPGME's CFFI interface uses the old API, therefore it is now broken. Since GPGME is a dependency of CVS Lispy, signature verification no longer works. I'm thinking about adding alternate support for using GnuPG command line tools via TRIVIAL-SHELL and making it default, since I really don't have enough time to look into the CFFI issues.

New Lispy Version 0.5

Sat, 23 Dec 2009 03:23:00 -0400

Changes include support for GNUPG.

Introducing Lispy Box

Sat, 26 Dec 2009 11:55:00 -0400

Lispy Box is a the result installing everything (about 100 libraries) through Lispy and then creating a archive file out of the result. Currently it results in about 28M (unpacked) of Common Lisp library source.
