HI,
  Can we have a hierarchical packages in Common Lisp. 
  I have a package "pack1" and in pack1 i have package pack2. And few
symbols are exported from pack2.
      Now from package acl, can use symbols of pack2. I mean can i use
pack1.pack2.<symbol name> to use the symbols.

Thank you in advance.

You might be interested in my ILC talk.  It's about how you can implement
a hierarchical module (not package) system entirely within ANSI standard
CL.

Do not adjust your mind, there is a fault in reality.

google is your friend.

There is a specification here:

http://www.franz.com/support/documentation/6.1/doc/packages.htm 

And an implementation here:
