Actually, my live site http://konsenti.com is using the alpha version.
However, I don't use
any short floats, and as co-maintainer I should be one of the people who
should be able to
hack around any problem that arises.

For coding efficiency, we use a byte tag to indicate the type rather
than the symbol returned from type-of. Turns out all lisps but
lispworks have short-float = single-float and long-float = double-
float, but the lisp spec provides for four different types.
Therefore short-float is not a

BTW, I can submit tickets but not edit the wiki, as I have no c-l.net

It's an alpha release. Depending on it's behaviour is a mistake alrea
Actually the database format is versioned already (one of the big
things we did in this release was make that possible) and so we can
read 0.6.0 databases with the 0.6.1 code base in order to upgrade.
As you say, I wasn't going to add a new version of the database
format just to read alpha

Coudln't the database format be versioned? We could then keep apart the
code that work on a given version, to alway
Does anyone have a strong dependency on the current 0.6.1 alpha? I
may need to change the serializer format to accommodate some types on
lispworks that don't get properly deserialized.
Specifically, lispworks supports a short-float which on most systems
is synonymous with single-float but
