Any of those with recent Lisp experience have any opinions about multicore 
capabilities?

What I've googled so far looks a bit rudimentary - mostly based on unix fork 
semantics. I'm looking for something much lighter-weight, Erlang-style, which 
could support thousands of cheap concurrent threads. In Erlang, the cost of 
such threads is comparable to the cost of a function call.

Subject: [computer-go] Lisp time


I've been (and still am) a die hard supporter of C++, but since I program in 
C++ for work (we develop gamelike software) I get tired of C++ day in and out.  
I'd also like to push myself to learn some new things.


Lisp seems to me like a language I could really come to respect.  I run linux 
(no windows, period) and I am comfortable with command-line if I need to be.  
Anyway, I'm trying to figure out what the best way would be to learn lisp so 
that I can begin working on a computer go program in it.  I can't even figure 
out what the right dielect would be for computer go.


Any of you out there using lisp want to maybe point me in the right direction 
for how to learn this language as it applies to writing a go program?  Thanks.

- Nick
