I can appreciate the desire for Lisp systems to have some form of Quicklisp integration, but I am reluctant to see divergence of instructions like this. I really like that the instructions for everyone are the same, instead of "On ECL, use (require :ecl-quicklisp), otherwise on XYCL, use (require :xy-quicklisp), otherwise download and load this file..." Same with instructions for loading things. "If you're on ECL, use REQUIRE, otherwise use QL:QUICKLOAD, otherwise..."
