[LispSea] A 'get things done' app (in Lisp)

[Dennis E. Hamilton]

I'm curious:

  1. Exactly what would implementing a LispSea web site demonstrate?

  2. What does someone get that they don't have already using well-known
tools, servers, and infrastructure services? 

  3. What makes Lisp killer for web sites?

  4. How much is just plain work that has to be done no matter what the
server-side technology is?  What impact is there on client-side technology?
(Ajax, etc.)

This is not something I would have thought is in the Lisp sweet spot.  I'm
asking because I don't know the answer to these questions and I wonder what
is appealing about that case.

As mentioned in an earlier post today
<http://common-lisp.net/pipermail/seattle/2006-June/000018.html> . 
I would like to avoid duplication and hear ideas. I realize we already have
the wiki and site but the group would pack more punch if we could tell those
that our own site is implemented in Lisp. 

Dis/agree ?
