Lexicons
Lexicons are actually part of a larger effort to make a dialect of Lisp on top of CL that is more accessible to newcomers. So even a relative newbie could be productive in just building any old project using both packages and lexicons and providing feedback about whether lexicons make it easier for them.
At the more advanced end, there are some very challenging design issues to be explored. There are actually two completely different implementations of lexicons at the moment, each with different advantages and disadvantages. It would be interesting to see if e.g. they could somehow be merged into a single implementation that had the best of both worlds.
