Naming a directory TAGS in CVS I hope that someone smarter than I am will read this and correct me.  It seems that if I name a directory "tags" somewhere in my CVS project, it will not be handled correctly by IBM Websphere Studio 5.1.1 (Eclipse 2.1.2).  When I try to check that directory (a Java package directory) out of CVS, WSAD says "error fetching file revisions".  I am using CVS for NT, but I AM NOT using a repository prefix.  So, I don't have this known error situation.  I'm not sure if my issue is a WSAD/Eclipse issue, a CVS for NT issue, or just a CVS issue.  We are working around it by renaming our tags package to taglib. 3:23:36 PM    comment []

Bill Clementson summarizes and responds to a troll on comp.lang.lisp throwing down the gauntlet and challenging the speed of Lisp.  The result?  Code that performs better than C++ and demonstrates how to write highly optimized Common Lisp. 3:00:16 PM    comment []
