I wonder if the Classloader issues that currently affect OSGi would impact an app-engine style deployment scenario as well. My understanding of the issue is that each different classloader would pick up its own RT and compile/generate up different versions of the core classes under each classloader. ( I'm willing to be totally corrected here, I'm still very new to clojure, and the issues we're seeing under OSGi ).
