- He made SBCL play nicely with ILISP. He figured out how to get the
- CMU CL dynamic object file loading code to work under SBCL. He
- ported CMU CL's support for Alpha and PPC CPUs to SBCL, and then
- continued to improve the ports. He wrote code (e.g. grovel_headers.c
- and stat_wrapper stuff) to handle machine-dependence and
- OS-dependence automatically, reducing the amount of hand-tweaking
- required to keep ports synchronized. He's also provided support
- for SBCL (as well as for free Common Lisp in general) through
- his CLiki website.
+ His contributions have included support for shared object loading
+ (from CMUCL), the Cheney GC for non-x86 ports (from CMUCL), Alpha
+ and PPC ports (from CMUCL), control stack exhaustion checking (new)
+ and native threads support for x86 Linux (new). He also refactored
+ the garbage collectors for understandability, wrote code
+ (e.g. grovel_headers.c and stat_wrapper stuff) to find
+ machine-dependent and OS-dependent constants automatically, and was
+ original author of the asdf, asdf-install, sb-bsd-sockets,
+ sb-executable, sb-grovel and sb-posix contrib packages.
