Great site, seems to have a good collection of lisp resources. I am waiting for the documentation to go online, it says it is still parsing the TeX sources of the commonlisp hyperspec. As a side note, I downloaded the Lispworks Common Lisp Hyperspec, but I could only find the HTML version. I see that the project is on Github, maybe someone will parse the Hyperspec and generate the documentation pages. I am adding a reminder to my org-agenda for next month, maybe I will attempt to do it :).

It looks like the Hyperspec license doesn't permit distributing documentation pages: > Permission to make partial copies is expressly NOT granted, EXCEPT that limited permission is granted to transmit and display a partial copy the Common Lisp HyperSpec for the ordinary purpose of direct viewing by a human being in the usual manner that hypertext browsers permit the viewing of such a complete document, provided that no recopying, redistribution, redisplay, or retransmission is made of any such partial copy.

But I guess you could distribute a script that does the processing.

  Reading the whole thing it seems you're allowed to distribute it as is without changing anything, and not getting any commercial advantage out of the distribution. There's this: https://github.com/LispLang/ansi-spec https://github.com/LispLang/ansi-spec Working from the TeX sources seem to be the right way to go especially if the information can get extracted into a generic representation so there could be a HTML / epub / whatever version

There is already a good PDF version of the Common Lisp Standard Draft. You can download it here: http://cvberry.com/tech_writings/notes/common_lisp_standard_draft.html http://cvberry.com/tech_writings/notes/common_lisp_standard_...
