Some background: I've been spending some of my free time providing by
basic Clojure support in VS 2010. To be honest, I'm a bit of a Clojure
newbie, so I figured something that would require me to build a lexer
and parser for the language and delve into the clojure source would be
a great way to learn while creating something other people might find
valuable. For adoption, having first-class support in VS for clojure-
clr would be huge.

I've built syntax highlighting, brace matching, and some basic
formatting helpers. I'm working on the REPL window and project/build
system next. My hope is to get it to the point where a user can
download the plugin, create a new project, get some basic boilerplate,
build, execute and debug all from within Visual Studio. People who are
using emacs won't be abandoning it, but I hope it'll help people with
a .Net background get going quickly.

I'm looking for input about what features I should focus on and just
general comments on the worthiness of the project. I figure I'm bound
to make mistakes by approaching this from a C/C++/C# programmer's
perspective, and this might preclude that.

Thanks.
