congratulations Zach. Is this the first actual multithreaded sbcl
application?

something tells me sbcl has just reached critical mass.

This seems extremely far from a pragmatic discussion of a concrete
lisp application.

ObConcreteLispApplication: I just released RIP-L, a ripping/encoding
application for SBCL on Linux/x86. The site is
http://www.xach.com/rip-l/.

It's intended to operate over the network, so the ripper and the
encoder talk to a controller via TCP. However, it also happens with
the ripper, encoder, and controller might be running in the same
image. I'd like to make the connection into a class, and make
subclasses for network connections and in-process connections.

What are some strategies for bidirectional communication between
multiple processes? What sort of data structures are built on the MP
primitives for this?

Zach
