I am curious if there are any public or commercial
Common Lisp compilers for DEC Alpha platforms
running OSF/1. Any information of either working
compilers, or even beta versions would be extremely
helpful. So far I have heard of a compiler from
Envos Inc. called Medley. Anybody having any experiences
with this version of Common Lisp?

Thanks,

I think you mean Venue. Yup, they've got an implementation for
Alpha's, in beta test now. 

 Anybody having any experiences with this version of Common Lisp?

Bunches, but then I work for them, so I'm biased. You might want to ask on the
mailing list devoted to that implementation, ·········@cis.ohio-state.edu. 
I haven't used the Alpha port yet, but I intend to soon. I've been
using the Ultrix and Sun ports of late.
