I've been following Hy for a while and it's sad that macros are still part of on-going discussions with no definite plan. It's one of the reason I prefer Scheme-inspired Lisps to Common Lisp. Hy just looks Lispy but it's no where near Lisp without all the macro system.

Hy has macros, and they work fairly well. I'm using plenty of macros in Adderall, would not be possible without them. There are a few rough edges with Hy macros, mostly due to the underlying Python, but I at least, can live with that, and they don't hinder my work.
