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.

Lisping at JPL Revisited
> but what sub-languages are we talking about? I only see a library with helper functions and macros. That's Common Lisp, not a derivative.
If your language is a DSL factory, the line between your language and DSLs naturally blurs. If https://github.com/y2q-actionman/with-c-syntax exists, does it mean that C is a DSL of Common Lisp, given a good enough standard library? If https://github.com/calyau/maxima exists, does it mean that Maxima is just Common Lisp with more maths? If https://github.com/Shen-Language/shen-cl and https://github.com/coalton-lang/coalton/ exist, does it mean that Shen and Coalton are just a fancy way of writing Common Lisp in an immutable way? If https://github.com/froggey/Iota exists and we can play sdlquake on Mezzano, does it mean that LLVM-IR is a dialect of Common Lisp?
The above series of questions is not meant to be fully credible - it's meant to be food for thought.

Lisp in Space
I have a macro in my personal library called BINDING-BLOCK that eliminates many though not all of the parens in common code idioms:
https://github.com/rongarret/ergolib/blob/master/core/bindin...
But like many of the sibling comments say, if you think getting rid of the parens entirely is desirable then you have missed the point, which is that Lisp code is not text, it's a data structure, a linked list, and the best way of serializing a linked list is with delimiters a the start and end, like so:

I believe the OP's ergolib provides an example. From https://github.com/rongarret/ergolib/blob/master/core/bindin..., the examples show code like:

Did anyone use Lisp in their home computers during the early PC revolution of the late 70s/early 80s (Apple, C64, etc.)? What was that experience like?
Yes. It was awesome. I used P-Lisp on an Apple II in the late 70s and it pretty much laid the foundation for my whole career. In the 80s I did my compiler class assignments in Lisp while everyone else was using Pascal or C. I got my assignments done in an hour while everyone else took days. I still got an A. I did my masters and Ph.D. thesis work using Coral Common Lisp (now Clozure Common Lisp) first on a Mac Plus, then a Mac II, then a Quadra. Nowadays I run CCL on an MBP. I still use some of the library code I wrote back in the 90s.

Eliminating Format from Lisp (2003)
to get a list of primes under 100.
See https://github.com/rongarret/ergolib for an implementation of WITH-COLLECTOR and lots of other constructs that are IMHO the Right Way to write code.

Common Lisp Resources
Any code modification is a potential security issue. There is nothing special about dynamic class redefinition in this regard.
I use it for deployment. I can deploy new code without having to take my application down. In fact, not only do all my existing instances get updated, but I also use an ORM [1] that automatically updates my database tables too.
