roxbase is a minimal and very simple Template System for Lisp. It isn't yet feature-complete and first and foremost intended for my own use. I have only 'tested' (used) it under .^[1]

Ah, the joys of reuse... but beware of productization

That class library, dubbed AuthorBase, now provides a pretty complete framework to easily and quickly create the scaffolding for an application that has some or all of the following requirements:

A Micro-ISV diversion

While I continue developing my other major software product I have after a few hours of pondering decided to start developing another one concurrently. This one will be purely open-book development: I will blog about the whole process, gather feedback and ideas from others all the time, and hope to attract a small number of people interested in the tool and test-driving it for their own needs.
