Now, I don't know very much about web development, particularly in the context of Lisp, so I'm looking forward to gaining better insight. My first question: everyone seemed interested in AllegroServe, and there were no mentions of mod_lisp. Any reasons for this, aside from the fact that Allegro is itself written in Lisp?
I don't know about AllegroServe. When I tried mod_lisp, it turned out to be (for better or worse) a way of linking Apache to a running LISP instance. At the time, I was looking for items similar to mod_perl and mod_ruby: permitting the running of LISP inside of Apache. I tried (and liked) Araneida; any reason why anyone didn't mention it? Araneida is the web server that is driving CLiki - and is developed by the same person. I put it on SBCL and it worked just fine.
