G'day ILISP hackers,
I should've written earlier to introduce our project called "SLIME" to you guys. It's similar to ILISP, the main differences are that we use a TCP socket to talk to Lisp and we generally try to imitate the Emacs Lisp programming interface.
It started out a few months ago as a hack by Eric Marsden for highlighting CMUCL's compiler warnings in Emacs buffers, but other people started playing with it and now it's snowballed. The main page is on Cliki at http://www.cliki.net/SLIME if you want to know more.
I'm not sure how all this relates to ILISP exactly, but I just wanted to shoot you a note to say hello and invite you to play around with it!
Cheers, Luke
