Hi,
I'm interested in weblocks development but first I have to setup Lisp
on my OS X.
What is your recommended OSX Lisp setup?
I'm considering Clozure CL.
Thanks for help and time.

I don't work on OS X, but I suggest you try Quicklisp with Clozure CL.

Do Clozure and weblocks work together?
It looks that weblocks recommends SBCL

CCL and SBCL are supported equally well.

I use Clozure and Weblocks in a production environment; I develop on OSX and deploy on Linux servers seamlessly. The developers of Clozure actually help with that project and several of them are fans of weblocks.

Enjoy!

I use SBCL (via macports + Porticus) + Emacs (download via
http://emacsformacosx.com/)
To setup weblocks, I use quicklisp. (very easy and quick, thanks to
Zach Beane)
