If anybody has questions or comments about the Lisp packaging
draft, today would be a really great day to send them
to me, so I can respond tonight before the meeting.
I am on vacation so I haven't had all that much time to review things
properly, but one thing I noticed is that, as someone not familiar with
Lisp who might be reviewing packages, some of the guidelines don't
really enlighten me as to how I might actually tell if a particular
package meets them. For example, I see that libraries should be managed
by "asdf" and that they should be able to load asdf with some specific
lisp code. The guidelines, however, don't inform me as to how I might
tell if the package does those things.
Also, a specfile template would really be appreciated. As it is, if
these guidelines were passed, I'd have no idea how to actually review
lisp packages.
