Good catch on Maclisp. I've moved the article to the right (lowercased seems more appropriate to me) name, and fixed all the redirects. --Maru (talk) Contribs 05:25, 17 November 2005 (UTC)


 * I never said lisp was washed out. My edit summary said (and I quote): "what has been done since Commonlisp washashedout?how is Maclisp not defunct?". "washashedout" = "was hashed out", not "washed ashed out" (which would be stupid of me to say, since it both does not make sense, and since I use lisps on a regular basis, and like it- which is why I edit Lisp articles to begin with). My apologies for not taking the time to add spaces, and making it possible for you to misunderstand me.


 * That said, while I'm sure one can get Maclisp to run, that doesn't mean it is maintained or supported anymore. Anyway, I will ask again. Who is maintaining Maclisp? Where could I verify this? Right now, all I have is your word that it is being maintained (which is generally used in the sense of software which is receiving bugfixes, at the minimum, added to it, and for which one can find people to help one troubleshoot problems. The latter condition obtains here, I am sure, but I am not so sure about the former.) Most of your edits are good, so I really do want to work with you: I haven't done anything hostile to you, like put tests on your page, block you, or insult you, so I'm a bit hurt by your hostile attitude. --Maru (talk) Contribs 20:01, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
