Joda Time, Colt, Fork/Join seem like projects that truly add something to Clojure. These are projects which solve problems that developers have come to expect from their respective language. Joda Time - sane date/time (really useful when building web services). Colt - enough people want to do graphics related projects (and have done) that built in support for matrix math would be really great. fork/join - not my expertise, but again a lot of posts about parallel computation.
