World Wide Web server implemented in CL; goal: to rapidly prototype, smoothly evolve experimental, novel, or complex applications for the WWW. [Open Source]
PLisp
Language gets overall syntax from Common Lisp and operators and datatypes from PostScript (PS). Compiler translates PLisp to PS, which can then run on any PS engine. Wiki page with description, links, code samples.
CMU Common Lisp: CMUCL
