I raised this complaint before and learned that most people using the "new" one have never even heard of Common Lisp, and certainly not of its own "asdf" system.



And the possibility of using "Google" to check for name collisions seems not to be known...


The possibility of existence of a "programmer" that is completely oblivious to Common Lisp is the really interesting phenomenon to ponder here. But hey, at least the article links back to Hacker News, Mastodon and Reddit so that we can all revel in ignorance. Surprised there is no Discord.


Came here to ask that. I've used the CL ASDF for decades now and have been confused more than once to run across docs for this one instead.
