I tried sending some e-mail to Ken Birman, but mail around here has been
flaky the last few days.  In addition, it occured to me that others might
be interested in the answer to this question (or even be able to provide
a positive answer :).

Is there an implementation of ISIS for Symbolics machines (hopefully done
in Common Lisp)?  I need to get a non-Lisp (e.g. Unix) environment talking
to a Symbolics CL environment.

Barring an implementation of ISIS, I'd be interested to hear of any other
scheme for asynchronous RPC-like behavior between Symbolics CL and the Unix/C
world.

Thanks!
