After some consideration I must conclude that the state of the Common Lisp packages in Debian is becoming unreasonable. One of the goals of forming the pkg-common-lisp team was that I would not be a bottleneck, as RL is inflicting more and more damage to my 'Debian playtime'.
Now that Luca left I'm basically the only 'active' (for very small values of active) DD/DM left. (no hard feeling towards anybody, just loads of thanks for the work they did)
I see two alternatives:
I don't expect the first alternative to be realistic, so unless proven wrong I'll RFA/RM all the libraries/clc on the 5th of September.

I see two alternatives:
- other people get involved, investigating bugs and sending git/darcs/whatever format patches.
- we go low impact and remove common-lisp-controller and all Common Lisp libraries, and I/we only package the lisp implementations (clisp, ecl, sbcl, cmucl and perhaps ccl) without any special changes
