Please add comments about the LISP programming language as being appropriate for OLPC development.

Steel Bank Common Lisp is available via "yum install sbcl" (found here).

You also probably want Emacs and Slime. The combo of Emacs, Slime, and SBCL makes a pretty decent Lisp environment, although it is not yet clear what you can do with it.

This package may make it possible to access Python libraries from Lisp.

These packages allow access to GTK bindings from Lisp.

DrScheme Scheme (Lisp) is available here.

Whether or not LISP is appropriate for children is up to both the teachers and the children.
