☩ as in I think they should be I can see someone disagreeing

Disagreements and minutia

Although I agree with your conclusion that Clack is the way to go for 99% of the web development started today I think you argue about it in an unnecessary dismissive tone. A HTTP Shared representation (in the spirit of WSGI) is most definitely a good thing™. But even Python has twisted. Also hunchentoot has some unresolved design flaws which are resolved in clack.

On the ASDF front a 'community default' that checks for sem ver and and some other utility stuff would be good (See hu.dwim.asdf for a PoC)

Don't think fiveam should be on the list. Prove is better in pretty much every respect.

You are recommending log4cl which is unmaintained afaik.

Also I think SxQL prematurely optimizes by using structures and there is still quite a way to go before something that resembles jooq (On the Future work front)

I think stuff like pjb's cesareum has some nifty things of topical utility. Fare-quasiquote is not useful on the day to day but can be a livesaver on some cases.
