The Clozure IDE is understandably a low priority.  Clozure, after all,  
is in the business of making money.

One solution would be to make the IDE a commercial product.  The  
compiler would remain free, but we would pay for active development of  
the IDE.

The IDE should be based on Fred, not Hemlock.  The view/event model  
should be similar, if not identical, to the MCL model.  The tools  
should be tightly integrated like MCL.

I don't see this happening unless we pay for it.
