Thanks that looks really good. I don't use .Net platform, so I am not a potential user, but for Lispers using the .Net platform, this would be nice.

I use Common Lisp a lot in my work and my own research programming, and language interop is always a nuisance. With IronScheme, it looks like interop with all .Net languages is easy.

It looks like this Scheme might eventually have good interop with Common Lisp:

  Scheme is Only the Beginning! ... and it will also offer Clojure as an

It did take me awhile to understand this is a paid offering on top of office 365 though.
