I wish ASDF didn't insist on /s for separating system name components

Good morning everyone!

jackdaniel: I am not sure that the CLtL2 environment interface is the way to go now that we have CLOS.
6:29:07
beach
jackdaniel: I am also not sure what the right protocol would be.

jackdaniel
beach: how CLOS makes it less useful?
7:13:26

jackdaniel: What I am saying is that the interface described in CLtL2 is a bit twisted because it does not take advantage of generic functions. I think we can do better than that now.

ah. well, I find it pretty clear as an interface and don't see any need for CLOS
7:14:47
beach
OK. That's fine then.

jackdaniel: well, here CLOS could be useful is if you guarantee some fixed type specifier to correspond to environment

today is the first day when I used (declare (special *variable*))
11:59:13
longshi
why is that a special day? (i'm more of a scheme guy)
12:00:25

longshi: Usually, special variables are created using DEFVAR or DEFPARMETER, and they also proclaim the variable special.
12:00:52
beach
longshi: So there is usually no reason for such a declaration.

finally git cloned informatimago too

this time I wanted to declare a variable special only locally, without creating a global binding
