Hey, we all have our rough edges :) I'm 50, there's less life in front of me than behind. Debating about the sex of angels looks to me a bad way of using the not so many hours left in our lives on significant problems before the final exit.
It's not the first time requests similar to this one pop out on this mailing list. The problem here is a timing issue, we left this phase of discussions a while ago (looks light years to me). Nobody is forced to use Clojure, if it this not appeals to your esthetic values, no problem, just use something else. You have what you think is a great idea, well, implement it, toy with it and then present your conclusions and hard facts here. This approach will yield at least two benefits: A) it will demonstrate that it's doable and will make limitations clear if any exists B) the effort required will make you realize if you get enough bang for your buck. There's so many existing projects to do out there to keep your entire life busy using Clojure, why spend time (even think time) re-inventing the wheel ? As for the Klingon stuff, I do not have bumps in my forehead or elsewhere :))) Luc > Your point is clear and valid but isn't it a bit harsh to write the > response in a tone like this?
