Well said. That is my take away too. It is surprising how to me how much weight people give to the assertions of others, famous or not. In truth, this human endeavor of programming (as all else) is really just a series of experiments, some grander than others, some will succeed, some fail, (and sometimes oscillate between success and failure over time :) The best thing someone can do, rather than opine loudly about the outcome of an experiment, is to either a) help to define and execute the experiment or b) if you don't like the idea, help to define and execute a different experiment. When the results are in, *then* you can opine loudly. :) So that, Chris, is why out of 125 posts (or so) I wanted to respond to yours, because you have done the experiment. Frankly, I'm not really sure if it's a good idea or not to reimplement Java libraries like Swing in Clojure, but I do know that we won't know unless someone gives it a shot. -- Josh -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
