I know Ultralisp is a Quicklisp distribution but there are a couple of things I don't understand. Does Ultralisp coexist with or replace Quicklisp (in other words, can I install both or only one)? Does Ultralisp provide a subset or superset of the packages in Quicklisp's archive?

@amoroso Ultralisp is another "distribution", you can have multiple distributions, they exist largely independently.
If an ASDF system of some particular name resides in more than one distribution, quicklisp will choose the more recent one. So it's common for some asdf systems to exist in both quicklisp, typically older dists, and ultralisp, where more recent updates to the asdf system have been made.
