Clojure doesn't currently provide features for distributed computation 
across multiple machines.  It focuses on the problem of concurrency within a 
single machine.  However, there are many libraries for the JVM designed to 
support distributed computation.  Message-queue systems like ActiveMQ and 
RabbitMQ work particularly well with Clojure, as do distributed coordination 
systems like ZooKeeper and Hazelcast.

People have also explored using Clojure on distributed-JVM systems like 
Teracotta, although that may still require some modifications to Clojure - 
search the list archives for notes.

Clojure doesn't have a formal roadmap beyond the next release, but future 
plans will likely involve writing more of the Clojure compiler in Clojure 
itself, to make it easier to enhance the compiler and port it to other 
platforms.
