During the last days, I almost switched from Lispworks (too many tabs, too many things in general) back to MCL (essential, fast, with a powerful meta-dot command). But I run into many problems, the most important of them is getting ASDF to run, so to be able to run the server (Hunchentoot) from there. I set up the init file to load ASDF in MCL, and tried to share the same registry which I previously created through Lispworks and asdf-install.... but it doesnt want to work! Why's that?

Then later today I found out about this (basically, Digitool's misteriosly 'silent' about MCL and intel-macs). So the question is: what's the right framework to choose?
