Summary
Jean-Philippe Paradis is a seasoned Common Lisp programmer with 15+ years of hands-on experience and more than a decade of open-source contributions, authoring and maintaining 30+ public-domain Quicklisp libraries and key community resources like the modern CLOS MOP spec. He runs HexstreamSoft, grew it to be the top Common Lisp site by engagement, and specializes in modular micro-libraries and high-impact community tooling. His background includes designing DSLs, an HTML-rewriting system, declarative configuration tooling, and robust server-side systems built on Linux and Emacs-centric workflows. Known for meticulous engineering and extreme modularity, he maintains near-perfect uptime across dozens of subdomains on modest infrastructure and advocates for making Common Lisp a mainstream language by 2040.
