If you don't want to jump all the way to UCW at once, try some of
the other, simpler packages listed on <http://www.cliki.net/web>.

Personally, I wrote my own web framework, very simple, something
a bit more than <http://www.cliki.net/cl-modlisp> but quite a bit
less than <http://www.cliki.net/araneida>, which sits behind Apache,
communicating through a C-based CGI that using "mod_lisp" protocol
[but which is not <http://www.cliki.net/mod_lisp> per se]. I run
it on CMUCL on top of both Linux & FreeBSD, using CMUCL's "green"
threads[1], with a new thread for each HTTP request, and have never
had any trouble with the threading aspects.  YMMV.

    really just within-process co-routining or multiprogramming.
