That's nice!

I took a look at the customer.lisp source.

We at Weblocks have similar goals (bring down LOC and effort
for web applications) but have a dedicated compiler for different
"views" of objects.

This means we can have objects look different in different places.

For example one user might be able to specify a 10 character
nickname, but another (with a different paid plan, for example)
may be able to have one that is 20 characters.

We also discern table, form and data views.

If you're interested in this kind of thing I suggest looking
at the Weblocks demo source code views for an employee model:

http://bitbucket.org/S11001001/weblocks-dev/src/tip/examples/weblocks-demo/src/model/employee.lisp

We figure out basic stuff from the class itself but are able
to enhance this information with views.

  Cheers,
