This started out as a joke for PyCon / teaching folks how to use Python AST, and it's grown to be kinda useful for a few things -- Macros aren't there yet, and the language is immature / special-snowflake about some things, but it's generally saneish.
Since we do target Python AST we don't control the runtime (at all), since hy stored as a .pyc (or even use pdb to debug lisp in Python, wat) it's really (really) hard to build up a traditional lisp.
Ah, thanks for the history. That provides context. I am afraid my contributions would be to provide rewrites and so forth to attempt to adhere to a subset of Common Lisp.

C'mon over and hack with us!
