Something like Erlang's message passing actor model in Common Lisp?

Hello,
I'm just curious if there is something like an asynchronous message passing actor model as can be found in Erlang. If there are a few, which would you recommend as the best?

I realize that it's not part of Lisp the same way as it is in Erlang, but are there external libraries that you would recommend (or personally tried, at which point I'd like your input on the experience) that could accomplish the same task?

I had a good impression of CL-MUPROC, but I don't know if it's still

maintained and/or the most recent version is usable.

Hello,
recently, i worked with the cffi based port of the zeromq-library. it is
installable via quicklisp assuming that you have installed the
zeromq-library previously. it provides a socket like api for message
passing and it is quite fast. the main advantage to my mind is that it
provides support for a wide range of languages. the guide to zeromq
provides also common lisp examples which makes it easy to learn.
although it is quite low-level compared to erlang-message-passing it
could provide a basic framwork to model a similar protocol.
