it would be nice to use something similar to destructuring-bind to collapse the 1st set of ELTs

I still think a FLET and DECLARE INLINE would be a bit shorter, but I agree that this current version is readable.

How do you guys deal with providing patches for libraries? I've got a few PRs up on github, but some have been there for ~2 months with no response. Is it bad form to directly email an author? I know people are busy - am I being impatient waiting only 2 months?

PuercoPop thanks. where is the match symbol coming from? I don't see it in hunchentoot or ppcre

PuercoPop I ended up using something similar to yours, but using ppcre:register-groups-bind

On a similar note, I've been looking to do more contributions to lisp projects. I'd still classify myself as a beginner. Does anyone know of any libraries or projects in need of some love?

ealfonso`: Yeah sorry, I was going to comment on that. It is TRIVIA:MATCH, a pattern matcher, in this case it is basically syntactic sugar around ppcre

I would say so, yes. Secondary would be to increase the overall quality of available CL libraries.

I have an embryonic GUI application for double-entry bookkeeping, but that might not be what you are looking for.

It is a pretty simple system when it comes to logic, but there are plenty of small features that could be added to it.
6:02:26
beach
It is also an application that I don't think anyone is using, so you can go ahead and experiment on it as much as you like.
6:03:17
beach
Sure. I am not sure that this is what you want, of course. If not, I'll try to dig up something else.

jack_rabbit: The application is also interesting because it uses CLOS a lot, including the APPEND method combination for the I/O part. So despite its small size, it exercises a lot of Common Lisp. And, it uses CLIM/McCLIM, of course, so that's positive too.

jack_rabbit
Excellent. I've been usinc McCLIM quite a bit lately, and want to do more. I also have been looking for reasons to exercise the less common features of CLOS.

Hi. I just noticed that http://www.sbcl.org/platform-table.html seems to be down. It says “please notify the site admins” but doesn’t say how to contact them. Maybe some are here.

drunk_foxx[m]: :) I just checked it and it’s working for me now too, so it must have been fixed.
