drmeister: I made lots of little fixes for the ansi-tests, so I am piling up lots of little prs

I can't tell you how much confidence this gives me. When I recently loaded (ql:quickload :plump) or (ql:quickload :cxml) and it just worked - you were the first person I thought of.

We finished the prototype for the free-energy perturbation calculation in the last weeks.

I've reached out to drug discovery company and they are excited and they are introducing me to more with big names.

If possible I would like a use cl-test-grid that seems to compile all of quicklisp and creates reports of failures

What I'm promising them is an open source computational chemistry platform that will never go away and never stop working for them.

drmeister
If/when more resources open up on this end we can provide the computing power to do that.

If we could (1) fix all of the bugs in clasp that break random quicklisp systems and (2) be confident that every quicklisp system builds with clasp - that would be tremendous.
15:28:49
drmeister
Certainly. But we can put those in a list and prioritize them and fix the ones we need going forward.

e.g. flexichain that seems include great part of cl-garbage, just without frgos fixes

Well, you never tell me what those systems are running and so I can't set one up to test things. :-)

stassats
well, i can tell you the current system, cause it does resemble something you can get - fedora

drmeister
You run Fedora! Now I have your precise location on the map. Expect a bottle of cognac on your doorstep for all the help you have given me in the past.

drmeister
Well, I'll be upgrading soon. Clang 7 has all sorts of alluring new features. I've just been trying to focus on chemistry code.

I have some higher priorities that are consuming my time until maybe summer - but the new JIT stuff in llvm7 is very alluring.
