I have been a "secret admirer" of clojure and the clojure approach to 
problem solving for quite some time now even though I'm not really a direct 
practitioner. I do try to convert my C# code into as "clojure like" a model 
as reasonably possible given all of my constraints. I have been a big fan 
of the design approach behind core.async and channels in general.

Recently I came across an approach to building systems that I am very 
curious what the clojure community would make of. There's a company called 
1060research that has been using what they call "Resource Oriented 
Computing" for over a decade now I believe.  One of its goals is to bring 
the economics of the model of the web into the level of software 
components. Their implementation of this approach is called NetKernel which 
as far as I can tell uses typical Java OO at its core but that 
implementation detail doesn't completely directly pervade the model it's 
trying to provide. It does create limitations for those of us who don't use 
the JVM however. They actually have a clojure language module to support 
running clojure code in their definition of components.

Here are some links for anyone who might be interested in starting to dig 
into it:

You tube video about the high level concepts <https://youtu.be/wpop1yd2ml8>


So to repeat the purpose of my post here, I'm really interested in how the 
community perceives this concept of "resource oriented computing" and how 
it meshes with the clojure mindset to design of systems. From my 
perspective it doesn't directly clash and in some ways is very 
complimentary.

I apologize of this topic is inappropriate to this group, I've never posted 
to any clojure related groups before.
