Are there new things being developed based on windows 3.1?

Are there new things being developed based on lisp?

The analogy is not very good.

Lisp and Windows 3.1 are “not dead” in very different ways.

Put otherwise, as https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33465597 says one could define “dead” in a way that Win 3.1 is dead but Lisp is not (not more than usual anyway).
