Hello,
  Personally I really like the way web development in Clojure is
improving. Rather than huge frameworks there are different libraries
that are coming together to form a useful toolset. Even the framework
Conjure is lightweight and using general purpose libraries under the
hood.

One drawback of this library approach though is that it is daunting to
beginners. Not only do newcomers have to choose what tools they want
to use they have to find a way to fit them together.

I've noticed that each library is being supported in their own group/
forum. This is fine for the well used libraries but less mainstream
libraries have groups with little traffic. Also, since libraries need
to interoperate it would be nice to have a place where library users
and library developers are aware of other web development going on.

I have developed three small libraries, mostly useful for web work,
that could be of interest to other people. However, I don't want to
start three different google groups which not only see no traffic but
also separate some tools which can be best applied together. Because
of this I was going to just have one group that supported all three.

One idea I had though was to go one step further and start a Clojure
web development group so that other developers of small libraries and
users of them could go to one place for support and discussion. Would
this be uncool or would it be useful?

Saul
