This is Kevin Reid's classification of tasks not implemented in Common Lisp, or just poorly done in CL, by what kind of problem they are.
As of 00:13, 8 August 2009. When updating this list, consult the diffs since then for what to add/remove.

Miscellaneous other

To improve
- Basic bitmap storage#Common Lisp — review for efficiency (inlining?), necessity of type declarations, idiom
- Adding variables to a class instance at runtime#Common Lisp — This should be a per-*instance* change. Use the MOP to generate a subclass and change-class to it.
- Arithmetic Evaluator#Common Lisp — I think there could be some simplification by changing to a prefix AST and using the CL operator names (use symbol-function, not eval).
- Pattern Matching#Common Lisp — See if there's a pattern matching library that offers more-lispy syntax.
- Basic Animation and Pendulum Animation — Investigate using CLIM.
