You're reinventing things like Metabang-bind and Fare-matcher:

What part of Lisp do you not understand? My version took four hours and
a pint of scotch.
Don't answer that, I killed you a while ago.
Instead you might port either to Arc and contribute it to the community,
thereby encouraging a Lisp and incidentally drawing folks towards Common
Lisp. ie, Something useful, if you know what that is.

And here I thought that the point of Greenspun was that buggy, half
complete reinventions of what was already in Lisp was a bad thing.
Using Scheme to reinvent Lisp so that Lisp can then be used to Greenspun
Lisp might be a fun meta-circle-jerk but I'm not gonna eat that biscuit.

You seem to have a notion, one that I find rather strange, that
contributing to the Balkanization of Lisp will somehow be good for the
future of Lisp.

Robert Morris' corollary to Greenspun's 10th come to life.
congrats. buggy, nasty, or otherwise, i'm sure they were
welcome additions and well received.
so arc has passed the 100 hour horizon and is well along
the way towards its 100 day public anniversary. welcome,
arc, to the lisp community.
[to the tune of Walk on the Wild Side.]
Arc came from out of MzScheme
In the server room she was PG's darlin'
But she never lost the (list)
Even when she was evalin' (lisp)
She says hey, His Kennyness,
take a walk on the abstract syntax tree
Said hey, Kenny,
take a walk on the abstract syntax tree
And the cool kids go,
`(yawn ,were :too-cool-to-care)
`(sigh ,weve :seen-it-here ,ere)
`(snipe ,arc :is-one-big-err)
`(sneer ,we :arent-wearing-underwear)
[with apologies to Lou Reed,
Whedon, PG, Kenny, and all the cool kids]
