I tried=20
https://archive.org/wayback/available?url=3Dhttp://beta.quicklisp.org/arc=
hive/cl-moneris/2011-04-18/cl-moneris-20110418-git.tgz
to get the url of the latest snapshot but it returned:

{"url":=20
"http://beta.quicklisp.org/archive/cl-moneris/2011-04-18/cl-moneris-20110=
418-git.tgz",=20
"archived_snapshots": {}}

which I consider an error. :(

The same goes for the cl-modlisp above. So 2/2 failed to give us the=20
snapshot url.

So the API seems currently broken which leaves us with the web-interface.

I will report upstream...
