Hey Mark, Congratulations on a very good article - I helped me get a lot of facts straight.
The final part of the article where you comment on the various functions like add-watcher etc, is not very insightful and the UML charts didnt help me all that much. But with such a small amount of critisism, its actually a compliment :) I loved it! Thanks. /Lau On Aug 30, 7:42 pm, Mark Volkmann <r.mark.volkm...@gmail.com> wrote: > I think we'd all agree that STM is a very important feature of > Clojure.
