4 Hi,
5
6 the Gentoo Lisp project is having trouble maintaining Common Lisp
7 packages and to a lesser extent Scheme packages due to a lack of
8 time/interest of the people currently working on that. Most of those
9 packages are leaf packages, but some are not: mostly dev-scheme/guile
10 and dev-lisp/sbcl (Steel Bank Common Lisp compiler) I think. Many
11 Common Lisp packages have been maintained in our overlay (mostly
12 thanks to Stelian Ionescu (fe[nl]ix)) including SBCL but not much has
13 moved to main tree.
14 With this email I am hoping to achieve (in order of preference) that
15 either some people with an interest in the Lisp family of programming
16 languages join our team to help us out, or some people (without said
17 broader interest?) take over primary responsibility for non-leaf
18 packages that are suffering, with the Lisp team taking a back seat.
19
20 People interested in joining us can contact us on our mailing list
21 <gentoo-lisp@l.g.o> or on freenode in our channel #gentoo-lisp.
