New Common Lisp based repositories

I've expanded my repositories on people.debian.org. Add to /etc/apt/sources.list:

• for sarge (aka stable):

  deb http://people.debian.org/~pvaneynd/cl-sarge-packages ./

• for unstable (for packages still in the NEW queue and pre-release stuff):

  deb http://people.debian.org/~pvaneynd/cl-packages ./

• and finally (upon great request) for ubuntu/hoary:

  deb http://people.debian.org/~pvaneynd/cl-hoary-packages ./

I also subscribed the cl-debian mailing list to most Common Lisp packages in debian, so members will see traffic when people upload new versions etc. Feel free to suggest new packages by subscribing them to the pts@qa.

I'm also planning to upload an experimental lazy allocating sbcl to those repositories, but will not upload it into debian proper unless there is popular demand for it.

Stranger then fiction

Yesterday I watched an amazing documentary on Arte on the use of subs in the cold war. In it was revealed that the intrusions of "soviet" subs into Swedish waters in the beginning of the 1980's was almost certainly caused by the USA navy! Use as subs as a terror weapon against a 'friendly' nation that was thinking of starting up negotiations with the USSR to have a kind of detente.
The more I hear of the effect of the USA on the cold war the more I think De Gaule was right all along...
