We (Laurent and me) are planning an overhaul of paredit.clj.

Apart from the fact that I'm far from being satisfied by the state of
parsley, none I can think of.

<rant>
Rant on the state of parsley;
1/ what I think is mostly right with it: true total incremental lexerless
parsing updating multiple views ("functional trees").
2/ what I think is wrong with it: its expressive power -- switching to more
lookahead would be doable but a meager gain for a sizeable effort -- I'd
like to bring incrementalism to a parser capable of handling any CFG but I
fail to find a sensible[1] way to make a CFG-class parser to be total while
not realizing most of the parse forrest

[1] one that nearly minimize the ignored input length and is stateless (a
parsing from scratch should return the same ignored spans)
