[lisp-interface-library-devel] Consolidating Common Lisp Libraries

Yes, I am ok with obsoleting the library when it's part of a bigger thing,
and actually getting used for something.

Should have in a near future (couple of weeks) - I could spend a few
hours per week.
I lost a contract recently plus I am moving as well, so I have to sort
that out first.

Is there some general guidance written how to proceed with integration into LIL?

Cheers,
  Karol
