Hello common-lisp.net admin(s),

I would like to publish a project of mine, ninep, which is an
implementation of the 9P2000 filesystem protocol used by the Plan9
operating system. More information about the protocol and its
applications can be found at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9P2000. ninep
is a library implementing almost all functionality a client needs to
access a 9P server. It is thread-safe and should scale very well. At the
moment it only runs on Allegro CL on Unix-like platforms, but should be
portable to CMUCL straight-forwardly once the latter stops segfaulting
on my machine...

For the moment it is primarily used to access wmii's filesystem (a
extensible window manager, http://wmii.de/) and has certain workarounds
for implementation bugs in wmii's own 9P implementation. Otherwise only
ramfs from Plan9 has been tested.

Ninep is available under a MIT-style license. The author is me (Julian
Stecklina) and my gpg key is attached. I use a darcs repository for
version control.
