The statement was many of the open source libraries written in Common Lisp are half-baked, incomplete, unmaintained and tasteless.
Qt, Scipy/Numpy and others are amongst the best libs available for their target language, but many other are really bad.

Python, it's easier to get feedback as there are potentially many more users.
