What this actually - means is open to debate, but each project member has a veto on all - project activities, so a degree of conservativism is inevitable. - - As a library Alexandria is one of the means by which the project - strives for its goals. Alexandria is a collection of portable public - domain utilities that meet the following constraints: - - * Utilities, not extensions: Alexandria will not contain conceptual - extensions to Common Lisp, instead limiting itself to tools and - utilities that fit well within the framework of standard ANSI Common - Lisp. Test-frameworks, system definitions, logging facilities, - serialization layers, etc. are all outside the scope of Alexandria - as a library, though well within the scope of Alexandria as a project. - * Conservative: Alexandria limits itself to what project members - consider conservative utilities. Alexandria does not and will not - include anaphoric constructs, loop-like binding macros, etc. - * Portable: Alexandria limits itself to portable parts of Common - Lisp. Even apparently conservative and usefull functions remain - outside the scope of Alexandria if they cannot be implemented - portably. Portability is here defined as portable within a - conforming implementation: implementation bugs are not considered - portability issues. - * Team player: Alexandria will not (initially, at least) subsume - or provide functionality for which good-quality special-purpose - packages exist, like split-sequence. Instead, third party packages - such as that may be "blessed". - </longdescription> - <upstream> - <remote-id type="gitlab">alexandria/alexandria</remote-id> - </upstream> -</pkgmetadata> |
