So, what do you guys think?
I generally agree with your comments. I haven't marked clisp stable because even I haven't had time to muck with it much. This is very much a work in progress; "stable" gives, I think, much false hope. In my experience, broken packages from the stable line are quite common (I lack examples currently) and do us no credit.
Further, I think it wise to consider OSX versions in keywording: things which work just fine for devs using Panther appear to break in Tiger, and vice-versa (again, no specific examples). This is a separate issue, however I think it is something we all should remember before marking a package "stable".
