Dear Emanuel,
Thank you for your expression of interest. I do intend to support WP-MIRROR.
Thank you also for your bug report. So far, I have been unable to reproduce your bug. However, I did notice that your command was:
$./wp-mirror-0.2.lisp
I assume that the `wp-mirror-0.2.lisp' means that WP-MIRROR was not installed using `make install'. Did you try that and did it fail? If it has installed correctly, then you would have issued:
# wp-mirror
I also assume that the `$' means that you were not logged in as `root'. Both installation and operation must be done using `root' (or perhaps `sudo' which I have not tried).
I recognize that the installation process is the weak point of version 0.2, and built in a great number of asserts and error messages in the hopes of anticipating such problems. So I very much appreciate that you brought this bug to my attention.
Sincerely Yours, Kent

Hallo Kent
I'm really interesting in wp-mirror. I have my own set of scripts in Perl for Kiwix which barely do the same (and also other things) but I have too few time to maintain them correctly.
So, this is really good that you have invested time to build a clean solution. Hope you will have time in the future to improve and maintain it. On my side I will do my best to use/test it and maybe propose patches (have to check how rusty are my small lisp skills).
I wanted to test it but have got following error after installing clisp and cl-getopt on my Ubuntu Lucid: $./wp-mirror-0.2.lisp
*** - Program stack overflow. RESET $
Do you know what is wrong?
Thank you very much Emmanuel

Dear list members,
I am posting here for the first time, and at the suggestion of Sumana Harihareswara.
I am pleased to announce the release of WP-MIRROR 0.2 which is a free utility for mirroring a set of wikipedias (the use specifies a list of language codes, the default being `simple').
WP-MIRROR 0.2 was released during the holidays under GPLv3, and may be found at http://www.nongnu.org/wp-mirror/. Feedback is welcome.
Sincerely Yours, Dr. Kent L. Miller
