It's possible to use SLIME+Clojure without ELPA and without clobbering
your other Lisps.  Check out http://github.com/vu3rdd/swank-clojure-extra
for starters.  Personally I still forgo `lein swank` in favor of
setting things up for `M-x slime` myself.  The best bits of lein
(dependency management, jar-file making etc.) work great without Emacs
getting involved.

I am convinced that ELPA is probably the best option for a Clojure/
Emacs newbie to get set up easily, but it's not for me and there are
plenty of other people who share your aversion.

Many thanks Phil and Leiningen contributors for another release.
