Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Common Lisp Implementations in 2023
One should note that while it is true that the last CLISP release was a long time ago and there is not a lot of development going on right now, it's not dead. Bruno Haible just commited last week.
The repository is now at https://gitlab.com/gnu-clisp/clisp

clisp-head from Roswell now has support for package-local nicknames
Roswell has switched its clisp-head to be built from https://github.com/roswell/clisp/ which is based on the commits from CLISP's canonical repository along with patches which add package-local nicknames to it.

roswell (21.10.14.111-1): clisp-head support
Oh dang, there is new development on clisp! I had to do some digging to find [the repo](https://gitlab.com/gnu-clisp/clisp), but it looks like the latest commit even adds support for MacOS on ARM.
- Package local nicknames: don't use with quicklisp-targeted packages?

SICL: A New Common Lisp Implementation
> phoe got package local nicknames into all implementations
Unfortunately it's not yet in Clisp. I submitted a merge request[1] a year ago, but it's been silent since then.

Common lisp or Racket as a first lisp?
Quick note, CLISP is actually an implementation of Common Lisp, and as such isn't used as an abbreviation for Common Lisp the language. Could you expand on what you mean w.r.t to package managers? As far as getting up and running with a CL environment, Portacle makes this pretty easy now.

It's 2023, so of course I'm learning Common Lisp
Solutions for the lack of https:
- add in https://github.com/rudolfochrist/ql-https (downloads packages with curl)
- use another package manager, CLPM: https://www.clpm.dev (or the newest ocicl)
> CLPM comes as a pre-built binary, supports HTTPS by default, supports installing multiple package versions, supports versioned systems, and more.
- use mitmproxy: https://hiphish.github.io/blog/2022/03/19/securing-quicklisp...

Ocicl – An ASDF system distribution and management tool for Common Lisp
Other options are:
- Quicklisp -really slick, libraries in there are curated. (with https support here: https://github.com/rudolfochrist/ql-https and here: https://github.com/snmsts/quicklisp-https.git)
- for project-local dependencies like virtualenv: https://github.com/fukamachi/qlot
- a new, more traditional one: https://www.clpm.dev (CLPM comes as a pre-built binary, supports HTTPS by default, supports installing multiple package versions, supports versioned systems, and more)
For recent Quicklisp upgrades: http://ultralisp.org/
Ocicl is very new (5 days) and tries a new approach, building "on tools from the world of containers".

What do you think the risks/pitfalls of using Common Lisp are in a business?

Common Lisp Implementations in 2023
LPM's warning is not surprising. It's common for libraries (dare I say open-source ones?), even if they work well. It's part of the stability game, once they are marked 1.0, they are stable. LPM works well (as reported by others).
QL wants to do it portably, there are easy workarounds, but yeah…
