1. wow
2. you almost caught him in the act: "registered 18 hours ago"
3. Lutz (and us, in case some crowd attention is needed) should review the man's actions: his fork is published as if existing under GNU Affero GPLv3, while the original is straight GPLv3

i.e. he relincensed it (and those are not exactly the same)

It remains to be seen, whether this is a good effort to extend newlisp, or an attempt to parasite on a long-living and quite polished project. If the man wants to enhance newlisp, why did not he offer his work here first?

Might be some part in the generalv tendency in Asia to "own" technologies created by others. I hope not, and this is an honest attempt to develop newlisp further.

I think that's the case here unfortunately.
