I like the name Clojure Archive. On another note, I always wondered why xml was such a requirement for Java dependency management. Couldn't we design some sort of url schema, that you could just pass to a package importer in the program. First time you run, it could fetch the packages or automatically check for upgrades etc. This could be managed in an external file if that seems safer. Just a simple manager that could wget the jars (which is all essentially that package managers like ruby gems do).
On a slightly unrelated note, how might we index packages for exploration? I think that packages should be indexed both by descriptions provided by the author and by comments within the code itself, in the docstrings of the fn's. Eventually, maybe we could cherry pick namespaces and even pull specific functions!
