Hi Tom, I might not be even remotely qualified but since I'm interested and find the idea cool, so here's my take:

(my current plan > is to start from <http://java.ociweb.com/mark/stm/article.html>) I would think a good place to start is to define the primitives and goals: Primitives: assume existence of monitors in Clojure Goals: Implement dosync in Clojure (hefty goal :)) I would love to help out in any capacity since I myself want to get started with understand the STM in more detail. If you need a volunteer you may contact me personally. Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
