Quoting Jack Unrue (jdunrue@gmail.com):
I've uploaded a snapshot of my work on a McCLIM backend for Windows:
Thanks for writing this!
Which Lisp implementation are you using for development?
I just tried SBCL 1.0 on Windows 2000. Demodemo appears as a window, but window contents do not get drawn, so the buttons are not visible. and the address book just says: fatal error encountered in SBCL pid 832: GC invariant lost, file "gencgc.c", line 833
My overall plan was to use existing abstractions provided by Graphic-Forms on top of the Win32 API rather than re-implement that infrastructure. Package nicknames GFG: GFS: and GFW: identify symbols exported from that library.
Sure, using Graphic-Forms seems like a good plan.
I would like to suggest this patch for mcclim.asd and ports.lisp instead of the file replacements from your zip file:

Diffs are easier to apply than complete copies of the files, and if you are using CVS, line endings should be handled automatically for you.
My diff also cleans up *server-path-search-order* and adds a comment explaining the chosen order. -- If anyone actually has a Genera backend, please speak up! ;-)
