McCLIM moves to Common-Lisp.net

Friday, December 10, 2004

Robert Strandh has announced to the McCLIM mailing list that, after some discussions among core developers, it has been decided to move the project infrastructure to Common-Lisp.net. CVS access to clim.mikemac.com has been turned off to permit the transfer of a consistent copy of the repository.

The hope is that the move will give the project wider visibility, and attract new developers and users. I agree with this decision. Besides visibility, the project lacks even such basic infrastructure as a mailing list archive.

Robert takes the opportunity to thank Mike McDonald for all the work he has done so far on McCLIM. These thanks are appropriate not just for Mike's work, but also for his commitment to the project. A big thank also to the Common-Lisp.net team, who is providing the Lisp community an increasingly precious service.
