Removed projects: algebraic-data-library, cl-curlex, cl-forest, cl-gpu, cl-indeterminism, cl-larval, cl-read-macro-tokens, cl-secure-read, cl-stm, defmacro-enhance, fs-utils, funds, lol-re, stump-touchy-mode-line, yaclanapht.

There is some extra churn this month. It's mostly because of the failure of cl-curlex, a library that uses SBCL internals and which no longer works as of the latest SBCL. Many projects (all by the same author) depend on cl-curlex, and they all broke. There hasn't been any response to my bug report yet.

The other removals are due to author request, neglect, or other breakage. If you'd like to restore a removed project to Quicklisp, let me know - I'm happy to help.

To get this update, use (ql:update-dist "quicklisp").

Enjoy!

Quicklisp implementation stats for 2017+

Here are some raw HTTP request stats for each CL implementation supported by Quicklisp from 2017-01-01 onward. Each request corresponds roughly to downloading a single project.

• SBCL: 4,518,774 requests
• Clozure CL: 488,057 
• CLISP: 34,767
• LispWorks: 25,700
• ABCL: 23,913 
• Allegro: 19,501
• ECL: 19,027
• CLASP: 3,335
• CMUCL: 965
• MKCL: 79
• Scieneer: 0

I gathered this info to check Scieneer activity levels to plan future support. Turns out nobody with Scieneer has used Quicklisp since 2013. Bummer!

Build failure RSS feeds

Every day, I build each project that Quicklisp tracks. If a project fails, I try to track down the author and let them know. If a project chronically fails and there's no fix in sight, I drop the project from Quicklisp.

In an effort to help authors follow build status, I've made a system of RSS feeds that are updated with daily build failures. The feeds have the following patterns:

• http://report.quicklisp.org/feeds/project/[name].rss has the failure feed for the project with the given name, for example http://report.quicklisp.org/feeds/project/clsql.rss
• http://report.quicklisp.org/feeds/author/[name].rss has the failures for all projects by a given author. The author name is determined with a bunch of pattern matching; the easiest match is on github username, for example http://report.quicklisp.org/feeds/author/AccelerationNet.rss

Each feed entry has info about where Quicklisp gets the project, what systems are failing, and an excerpt from the build log and backtrace. There are links to the full build log. 

I hope you find these reports useful. If you have any suggestions or questions, feel free to get in touch.
