One of the biggest frustrations in maintaining the Emacs libraries for Clojure has been the fact that ELPA, the original package archive for Emacs, is manually curated, so updates can take a very long time to propagate. In Emacs 24 (currently under development), they have bundled the package.el package manager with enhancements that allow it to read from multiple archive sources. This allows Elisp maintainers to keep their own package sources in a decentralized manner on their own terms rather than submitting everything to the official GNU sources or the original ELPA archive.
My personal package archive at http://repo.technomancy.us/emacs/ now has a new clojure-mode, clojure-test-mode, and paredit. It also has durendal and a version of slime that has the version mismatch fix in place. If you want to stay on stable Emacs, you can get the latest package.el straight out of Emacs trunk; (http://bit.ly/pkg-el) I've done some testing that indicates it should work fine on 23. Note that it now comes configured with only the FSF repo out of the box, and since it doesn't host non-GNU projects it only has six or so packages. You have to add other archives like ELPA or my own before it's useful. tl;dr: you'll get more up-to-date versions of clojure-mode, slime, etc. if you use Emacs 24 with my personal package archive: (add-to-list 'package-archives '("technomancy" . "http://repo.technomancy.us/emacs/";) t) Let me know if you run into problems. -Phil -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
