I think this would be sensible.  (I think there are a number of
sensible, low-glamour maintenance pieces of work that could be done,
such as making sense of the package structure and agreeing a policy
for future extensions; perhaps moving extensions into a subdirectory;
updating the manual to reflect the new additions to the code; working
out enough convenient hooks to be able to debug threaded interaction
on natively-preemptively-threaded Lisp implementations...)

OK, I still don't understand how distributed development is meant to
work, but I have "unpull"ed my own merge of your patch, and pulled
from this repository.  (I will attempt to keep my tree at
<http://common-lisp.net/~crhodes/clx> as a "releaseable" tree,
whatever that means.

Cheers,

Christophe
