"It is quite reliable, and has good garbage collection, and no memory leaks.
It comes with hundreds of self tests."

I would leave this out of the description. Garbage collection and memory leaks
is anyways mostly a feature of the underlying lisp implementation.

Do you think it is important to make a main package and subpackage for the lisp.
binary? I would rather have a package maxima that is build with clisp. If anyone
wants to use e.g. sbcl, he can build it himself.

If you use a cvs snapshot, the date should be reflected in the release tag.

texi2dvi is missing in tetex3, but texi2dvi -p does the same thing.

IMHO the spec file is little complicated. Is really necessary to have all
the optional stuff? Why not build for clisp only, bundle the prebuilt doc,
and clean up the spec (at least for now).
