Grew tired of the "edit compile reboot" cycle to hack Linux's
networking. What a bore!

I also think that the really nice parts of Linux, like 'iptables',
would be much better almost automatically if done in Lisp -- using
lisp functions instead of the assembler-ish 'chains', and so on.

Time will tell :-)
