A key benefit of the move to modular contrib libraries is to prevent having "library ecosystem" == "monolithic hairball". > I think a statement of the policies of the Clojure/Core team (perhaps > spelled out on the website) concerning stability and backward > compatibility would really help those of us who want to be able to > rely on Clojure. The objective is the kind of stability seen across 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2. I am aware of nothing on the horizon like the numerics change, but if something important enough comes along, a decision will be made.
