That is not the goal. The goal is to make Lisp a viable competitor in
the current programming language market, dominated by C++, Java, and
Python/Ruby. The Rails part of my question is merely a part of the
overall picture. In order to play in this domain there needs to be a
single, free, excellent Lisp with a modern library and several killer
apps; Rails seems to be a killer app that would be easy to copy --
that's the only reason I mentioned Rails.

So what features do you think open source lisp is missing that
prevents it from competing efficiently, but which are present in ACL/
lispworks?
