It's on the github page at the top.
The emacs packages are mentioned as deprecated here:
http://groups.google.com/group/clojure/browse_thread/thread/1d3f308b1bc3dc61
I guess I confused the marmelade repo with whatever repo was mentioned in
that thread.

I'm sorry, I'm used to really bad documentation in the open source world.
If someone says somewhere
something is not working, my instinct is to take that with a grain of salt
even if it's just a random person
on the internet. I'll give swank-clojure a shot tonight.

Clearly, your software is more polished than I assumed it would be. :)
(based on too much past experience in the open source world.)

I can't find it again :( But, it was about how the 1.4.0-SNAPSHOT was
behind.

It does say to use 1.3.4 over here:
http://dev.clojure.org/display/doc/Getting+Started+with+Emacs
That's definitely one of the things I got confused on. As a noob, I take
dev.clojure.org as g
ospel since it's part of clojure.org.
