And yet the #1 "FAQ" we see on lists and reflected in blog posts is about getting Clojure up and running... We see Java developers, committed to their favorite IDE, still asking "Should I install / learn Emacs?" We see old-time Lispers, happy with Emacs, struggle with the Java infrastructure. A lot of n00bs want to be told the "One True Way" to set up their development environment - they don't want to be confronted with choices. Like you, I don't entirely understand why this is an issue - but I accept that it clearly _is_ an issue... -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ World Singles, LLC. -- http://worldsingles.com/ Railo Technologies, Inc. -- http://www.getrailo.com/ "Perfection is the enemy of the good." -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
