The short answer is license issues, CAPI, IDE.  There's also a longer
answer, but I'm too busy with other "real world" stuff right now and I
don't think this is the right forum.  One of these days, when I have
more time, I'll probably write "Edi's Common Lisp FAQ" - now that we
have Nikodemus' version... :)
