We seem to be in a similar position. We have a large CFML web
application using frameworks that were decided before I joined the
project. I initially introduced some Scala to handle some
performance-critical XML transformations. Now I'm looking at the
long-term roadmap for what we need to continue to grow our business
and I'm prototyping sections of the application in Clojure but we're a
bit hamstrung by some restrictions in the frameworks that were chosen
(mainly the ColdBox MVC framework - CFML itself is not a problem) so
until I can break some dependency chains, I can't move Clojure into
production. But that will happen fairly soon (this past weekend I
rewrote one core low-level component in Clojure to get us a step
closer).

I expect we'll stay with CFML for application views - CFML is a great
HTML templating language - and we'll switch to a much simpler CFML MVC
framework to replace ColdBox (FW/1 - which I wrote and published last
year) so the controllers will stay in CFML. But the model will slowly
migrate entirely to Clojure over time I expect.
