May I ask you guys to pick another name? :-) I just recently more or
less released my own BABEL package that is completely unrelated to
Alexandria or utilities:
  <http://common-lisp.net/~loliveira/soc07/>

Also, may I ask what the consensus (if any) is regarding the idea of
defining multiple packages for different sorts of utilities? For
example: utilities for macro-writing, sequence utilities (strings,
lists, vectors), functional programming utilities, numeric utilities,
etc.
