I haven't spent much effort on Common Lisp support recently, though it does inform my design decisions.
I haven't got the impression there is a lot of demand - but that may be a chicken-and-egg problem: A semi-usable Common Lisp implementation is a nig job; people needing Common Lisp aren't going to look at Kawa until it becomes more feature-complete; OTOH I can't afford to spend a lot of time on Common Lisp implementation without demand.
If there were a source
of funding for me to work on Common Lisp support, it would be different,
but I don't know of anything.
I believe Common-Lisp-the-Language first edition is somewhat
doable in a few months of concentrated (full-time) work. A useful "static"
subset of CLOS is probably not that difficult to add, though a complete
implementation including the MOP would be more of challenge.
