Hi Gary,<br>
<br>
I appreciate the effort you have been able to donate to the open
source effort, and would like to help out, but my situation doesn't
allow me to take on the responsibility. Sorry, I'll just kibbitz.<br>
<br>
Jack<br>
<br>
P.S. thanks for the pointers<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi Jack,
Thanks for the patch. As Faré said, I'm hardly able to main ASDF-install right now (and though I once deluded myself that this was a temporary condition, it seems likely to stay that way (my apologies to all).
If you're interested in maintaining it, please let me.
I'd also recommend checking out clbuild and QuickLisp.
regards,

<pre wrap="">Jack, are you interested in becoming asdf-install maintainer? Gary
doesn't seem to have much time for it.
On the other hand, the future seems to be quicklisp.
