If you want something done then you need to start on it yourself. Disregarding what QuickLisp has accomplished because you have to deal with more than one package management system is trollish. You'll probably want to start by designing a plugin framework that can support multiple versions of any given language. Also need to be able to bundle dependencies per application, on any operating system, so that you don't pollute the global package space for any one given application under developement. kthx
