I still insist that we use either Darcs or subversion. I think Darcs
may be better, but
subversion is much more standard.
A primary concern must be the each with which the average user,
including the
non-LISP expert, can extract our work.
We are not so large a project that we have to optimize
Nevermind. I went back and tested some assumptions I was making back
when I was still learning the MOP and found them not to hold, so I
think I have a cleaner solution now.
Thanks for the prompting Pierre!

ensure-class-using-class will fail if it gets a keyword argument it
doesn't recognize, but :around methods on that function for the class
argument (eql nil) flags warnings or errors. Since the MOP doesn't

I tend to agree with Henrik for my own part. Despite the maturity of
some of the lisp libraries, I have found myself needing to patch or
tweak many of them at one point or another. Moreoever, if you asdf-
install a version, find a problem, report it, then you can't receive
a fix until anot
