There is a full implementation of a Frame Representation Language being
distributed by a company in Ireland called Generics (Software) Ltd.
This FRL runs in any advanced lisp dialect - CommonLISP, FranzLISP, etc. -
on machines ranging from an IBM-PC to microVAX and VAX.
  It's not exactly public domain stuff but it's not expensive 
either ($300 - $500), and special licences are available for educational
institutions.

If interested, I suggest you contact them directly for further information
