Franz is a good company. My consulting customer a while back also hired them for a while - really smart people. Jans Aasman, mentioned in the interview, gave me funding to write a book that was partially on AllegroGraph (that book, very indirectly, led to my being invited to work on a knowledge graph project at Google).&lt;p&gt;For those interested, I recommend downloading the free version of AllegroGraph as a docker image, and the free version of their Common Lisp IDE. Their latest IDE is web based, with a background Lisp app. Neat idea.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>The History of Franz and Lisp</title><url>https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9740557</url></story>

I have no idea what kind of license the university had and how much they had paid for it. That wasn&amp;#x27;t a question you would ask yourself those days, all computers were worth millions.&lt;p&gt;Around those days the university also bought a Symbolics. But its capacity was well below the VAX so students didn&amp;#x27;t get to use it without working on any very specific project in just that Lisp group.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>The History of Franz and Lisp</title><url>https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9740557</url></story>
