   I am using MACL exclusively and, like on any large Lisp
   system, sometimes I have problems that are not mine.  When
   I programmed on the Xerox 1100 series Lisp Machines, there
   was a place where I could exchange information (and still
   is), public domain hacks, complain about bugs in the system
   etc.  Are there enough people using MACL to form such a group?

We're in the process of starting a mailing list for such discussions.
The address is:

         info-macl@cambridge.apple.com

If you want to be added to the mailing list, send a request to

         info-macl-request@cambridge.apple.com

As GZ noted, bug reports can be sent to

         bug-macl@cambridge.apple.com


   Since I bought Macintosh Allegro Common Lisp from a receptionist
   at APDA, I have no way to ask her, for example, why the Lisp 
   crashes from time to time without any apparent reason and if
   the developers are aware of that and are working on fixing it.

This and a few other bugs in 1.3.1 have been fixed.  In a couple weeks
we'll be sending out a free update to everyone who got 1.3.1.  :-)


Cheers!
