Re: RMCL Hosting Request and Updates

Thanks Clozure!!!

I think Google Code is a great place. We have used that now with  
XMLisp and really like it. It has all kinds nifty tools built in and  
even has some (limited) Lisp awareness. Notice syntax coloring here: http://code.google.com/p/xmlisp/source/browse/trunk/XMLisp/sources/Lisp%20User%20Interface/Camera.lisp

I don't mind to help but I like for somebody else to lead this.
