it seems like a common thing people try to do in Clojure e.g. random link http://github.com/fffej/ClojureProjects/blob/33ef9f0d1c67821658122273321e0a403486374b/misc/uk/co/fatvat/flock.clj so, can anybody "official" say if this use case is / will be explicitly kept in mind for agent implementation? thanks :) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
