> There is this wiki page that has (or started?) put together guidelines > for the packaging of lisp packages. Interesting, thanks. This page is a bit eclectic right now. Gentoo has an excellent one in its Wiki: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/lisp/common-lisp/guide.xml In my opinion the first essential step is defining a common location for all packages and a framework for having user- and implementation-specific locations for the compiled binaries. I also wonder whether all people interested in Arch and Common Lisp are reading this, or whether some are only active in the forums.
