I think it is important to be clear about the difference between:

(A) exploring Clojure (non trivially, including interesting Java libraries)

(B) deploying Clojure into production.

I nominate the labrepl (http://github.com/relevance/labrepl) as a solution for (A). It already includes interesting libraries (e.g. compojure, incanter), and it has instructions for working with different IDEs (which I hope the community will improve upon).

I don't think there is, or needs to be, a one-size-fits-all solution for (B). That's what the Java ecosystem is for. Plus, beginners don't need (B).

So perhaps it would be worthwhile to create, like jruby, a single zip/
tgz file containing clojure, clojure-contrib, and a reasonable bin/clj
file that will find at least the core clojure jar files on its own? I
don't see how you're going to actually deploy any clojure apps, or
connect to a database, or really use any third party code at all
without understanding how java's classpath works but at least you can
get a REPL going.
