Since I recall you being a Common Lisp enthousiast: do you see, for example, ECL ever becoming a viable alternative for making Android apps?

I've been exploring iOS using Objective-C and I'm about half-way done with my first real app for the Appstore and I can't wait to try and rewrite it using ECL once it is done.

Otherwise it will probably be Unity for me since my main interest is games and game-like apps. I really don't have the time to become and expert in each and every differing mobile platform.




I didn't look into any "alternative" ways of doing things. I tried to port ABCL to Android, but for my current needs, the standard-way is good enough, at least then I can hire help and focus on what matters, instead of doing everything myself.

Our Android apps are all on the galaxy tablet, we plan to roll out a deployment of 50 devices by year's end.
