If so, please supply bibliographical references (and URL's, if possible). nope - Have you developed or participated in the development of any Lisp-related programs or libraries? If so, please supply a URL, if possible. nothing yet.currently working on a project which i hope i'll be able to upload in common-lisp.net as soon as im at least satisfied with the beauty of the code regardless to whether its workin or not as expected. - Lisp variants you have used (e.g. Common Lisp, Scheme, Dylan): common-lisp - Lisp variants you're currently using or intend to use in the near future: common-lisp, expecting arc from Leonardo Graham ;) - Lisp implementations you have used (e.g. CMUCL, Lispworks, Allegro Common Lisp): CMUCL, SBCL, Clisp - Lisp implementations you're currently using or intend to use in the near future: CMUCL - Computer platforms on which you're using or deploying Lisp: FreeBSD x86 mostly, some Linux x86 too - Number of years of experience with Lisp: one and a half stop and go due to university forceing me to programm on the "my mobile phone can play an arcade at 5 FPS now!!" language ....(yes java..) - Experience with other programming languages (please supply the number of years and the name of the language): C, C++ 4 years and java or assembly or VHDL only for university courses for a year or so..(thank god!!) - Do you use Lisp: 100% as my girl (other than my physical one) It's hobby but its a relationship that needs care all the time too - Are you using Lisp as much as you would like to? If not, why not? Certainly not. Already answered (hint: 3 questions up) - Do you see any obstacles to further Lisp growth (if so, what is the biggest obstacle in your opinion)? I don't think lisp growth is so important. I read somewhere "Fortran builds the greatest of the buildings, Lisp builds organisms"..im happy that most people cant find any meaning in the latter..kindof spares my eyes from seeing totally unaesthetic things - Would you be interested in a Lisp-related job or contract work? nope - Is your organization interested in hiring Lisp programmers? well i'll propose that to the Java teacher of mine ;P - Are you currently participating in Lisp-related meetings? If so, where and how often? If not, would you be interested in such meetings? No but I'd be really interested to see something like that in greece sometime.
