I have been a beginner lisp developer for years largely because the is just a large problem with answering the question "I want to make a website, but what a pain to figure
out where to start", I want to X.  I would be down to contribute.

This lisp learning curve is large, and figuring out the exact resources that are available is harder.  Especially because it's hard to tell from the outside what is being maintained and up todate, and what works on which cl distribution. 

This sounds like some thing that can be added to http://common-lisp.net/ or http://www.cliki.net/

Very true, and something I'd like to add.

Right now it's mostly useful for the "I already know I want Hunchentoot,
but what a pain to get all the dependencies" group. I need to make it
more useful to the "I want to make a website, but what a pain to figure
out where to start" group.
