I've added the files to the distribution, thank you. And if you could
come up with a signed sbcl-0.7.13-dan_b.asc file, I can add that too.

Alternatively, I don't mind adding files myself, but if you ever want
to avoid delay, I think SourceForge lets you -- any official developer
on the project -- put files into distributions directly. From the main
page, follow the "Admin" link, then "Edit/Release Files", then "Edit
Releases", etc.

(The lengthy delay this time was not just because I'm a lazy fellow
but because balefire delenda est -- complete hard drive titsupitude,
probably not worth repairing in an older laptop. So I've been
distracted by progressively rebuilding by adapting backed-up OpenBSD
configuration stuff to my fast relatively new Linux box, and I've had
more fun than I really wanted with Internet connectivity stuff in
general and exim in particular.)

OK, I've added the link in the libs.php page.

While I was there, I also deleted the old link from libs.php to
db-sockets as a standalone library, on the theory that it's probably
superseded by the contrib/ version now. And I kept the link from
libs.php to <http://ww.telent.net/lisp/>, but I note that that page
says things like "* New 2000-05-30" so let me know if you'd like that
link to go somewhere else.
