So I was working on and off on this project for the last months. I use it now in production on a Raspberry Pi, so I thought I could announce its existence.

There are a lot of rough edges but useable. Maybe interesting for you.

    I’m a bit torn. I agree that if you have a proper project name it shouldn’t require the ‘cl-’ prefix. On the other hand, the prefix seems to be a common Common Lisp library prefix.

      Yes it is, but is that important?

      I would think of what is the target audience. If it is a general home automation crowd, for them the programming language used is just an implementation detail, not the major reason to choose the project.

      Of course, the name is not the most important thing either, it was just my reflection since the discussion was about it.

        Right now I don’t think this will be a big thing for other crowd than the CL home automation. So for now cl-hab seems like ok for me. If it grows it will be good to rename it.
