We have decided to close the Lisp umbrella project [1]. Its subprojects
Common Lisp, Scheme, and Emacs already moved to the top level.

We will keep the #gentoo-lisp IRC channel and the lisp overlay;
ownership of the latter will be changed to Common Lisp and Scheme.
(The Emacs project has always used its own overlay.)

Rationale: There is little value in having an umbrella project for Lisp
related things. The few common resources don't justify having a project.
The Lisp project neither has any members other than those inherited
from its subprojects, and there are no packages with lisp@gentoo.org
as maintainer.

(As a general note, most umbrella projects seem to be a remnant of the
old CVS pages or even of GLEP 4 metaprojects [2], where projects were
organised as a hierarchical tree. In the wiki, the structure is mostly
flat, with the occasional subproject to provide additional structure.)
