I ran into this problem last night actually, and maybe it could be solved with education. :-) Is there a good way to convert an arbitrary java.util.Collection into a clojure set? I was working with some java code that returned a java.util.Enumeration, and (set java-obj) was returning 'don't know how to create ISeq from:'. If it were easier to convert java collections into clojure, that would obviate at least some of my need for a contains? on list/vectors/seqs. The patch looks pretty easy. Rich, would you be amenable?
