You request an academic license for CLOS.

1. CLOS is the (now accepted) standard specification for an object-oriented
extension to CommonLisp.  In fact, the X3J13 commitee has made it a
standard part of CommonLisp.  It is not a particular product to be sold or
licensed.

2. The only currently available implementation of CLOS is called PCL, which
was (and is being) developed at Xerox PARC by Gregor Kiczales.  You can ftp
it from arisia@xerox.com via anonymous login.  This implementation is in
the public domain; no licensing agreements or payments are needed.  Since
PCL was developed by Xerox, you are required to keep the copyright notices
on all the files.

3. The CLOS distribution list is commonloops.pa@xerox.com.  Join up!
