Fantastic repo! Are you still maintaining it?

orthecreedence commented 6 years ago

Not really. I accept PRs, but not actively using it in any projects at the moment. That said, it works great, and I used it in production for years. I think the only issues it would have going forward would be its dependency library, cl-libuv, keeping up with the OS-packaged versions of libuv.

If you want cross-platform async in lisp, it's certainly your best bet as far as I know.

Would you be interested in giving a talk on async in Lisp at Stanford this year? Since you live in SF, we're practically neighbors! I'd be delighted to host you for an invited departmental seminar (on either async in Lisp or any another Lisp project you're currently passionate about).

I think I may have answered this here :) -- https://github.com/turtl/core-cl/issues/2#issuecomment-373966505

I haven't done anything in Lisp for a few years now, so I might not have much to bring to the table. Most of my projects are in limited maintenance. I really appreciate the invite though.
