Does anyone here have sentiments regarding WITH-TIMEOUT? If not, I'd propose that WITH-TIMEOUT be totally removed from Hunchentoot.
Not that I'm totally against it, but what's the reason? Right now, I'm seeing it as a kind of stopgap solution for Lisps without stream timeouts. If you don't have /any/ timeouts, you're pretty prone to DoS attacks, aren't you?
Can't WITH-TIMEOUT be implemented in OpenMCL 1.2?
