Hi all,

I've been asked to see if I can locate a good free/cheap implementation of
Common Lisp for NeXT TurboSlabs running NeXTstep 2/3 - and yes, I believe 
that that rules out Allegro.  In particular, we are looking for a CL that 
implements CLOS - the "Object System".

So far as I can tell, the four leading CL players are:

Allegro & Lucid - both costly commercial implementations
[Austin] Kyoto  - doesn't include CLOS
CMU CL          - free, good, does CLOS, for Mach,...but not for NeXTs!

Can anyone correct me on any of these points?
Are there any alternatives that I haven't heard of?

TIA, replies by mail puh-leez, NeXTmail *not* welcome.
