Good feedback. Thanx. I guess I'm used to reading wikis on github as
being the official project home pages but I can see your p.o.v.

I'm a developer so I think it's reasonable to read about developer
tools on developer sites but I'm getting the sense that a lot of
people coming to Clojure are not coming from what might be called a
'traditional developer' background?

Point taken but I find it an interesting distinction given that the
users of developer tools like CCW are developers :)

However, as someone involved with an free open source CFML engine who
is faced with a large number of Windows developers who expect simple
click-click-done installers, I think I can understand where you're
coming from...

So if CounterClockWise had its own domain website that pointed to the
Google repo and the wiki and the Assembla wiki (where all the other
IDE plugins are documented), you'd be mollified?
