Hi Jason,

this mailing list is about administration of the
common-lisp.net server; nonetheless I can offer
my _personal_ opinions.

Because it became an ANSI Standard in 1994;
you don't simply change standards on a whim.

OTOH, see https://github.com/cl21/cl21.

These represent different ways of supporting the
CL user base and infrastructure.

No. Clojure differs on a few key points;
it has a different architecture.

CL.
