I suspect that it is because SQL is (typically?) case insensitive on names, so queries are often written using without regard to the case of the field names. As keywords are not compared case-insensitively, it would make it difficult to reconcile the results of multiple pre-written queries in clojure if down-casing didn't occur. I'm in favour of down-casing - at least by default. Some processing is going to happen anyway, as column names might contain spaces, which wouldn't be allowed in keywords. -- Dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
