i have thought about the organization name and heisig's suggestion some more. the only problem i see is that "common lisp in small pieces" abbreviates to "clisp", which basically means it can't be abbreviated without confusion. how about replacing "small pieces" with something else like "irreducible modules", "tiny units", etc?

so cliim or clitu, respectively

common lisp in very small pieces: clivsp
11:02:12
jackdaniel
common lisp in tiny pieces: clitp
11:02:51

I mean, you're getting sickles, cleavers, concrete syntax trees, etc

"clivus is a bony part of the cranium at the skull base". "clivis is a neume representing two notes descending".

I don't care much what is chosen, but I'll suggest Common Lisp in Manageable Pieces, which is CLIMP.

beach: already taken, sadly: https://github.com/climp

Then I'll suggest Incling, which is not an acronym.

i was to suggest "manageable chunks" which would work with github, but https://www.cliki.net/Climc

I am not good at this, so I give up.

i think you have good ideas, but the constraints make it extremely difficult
