Very much agreed on the need for a default launcher/script. This is an
annoying obstacle to adoption in my mind. Most of the "Getting Started
with Clojure" tutorials show you how to launch clojure with java and
the jar, and then provide a shell script wrapper to simplify things.

Another cool launcher I found is Hashdot:
http://hashdot.sourceforge.net/

It's simple 'n approachable and it comes with sane default settings
for the JVM for scripting tasks! The project also looks to be more
active than the Commons Launcher. It's missing a bit of spit and
polish in terms of distribution but that can be fixed. There isn't a
debian package and depending on your setup, you'll probably have to
edit the Makefile to install from source.
