Hi Aaron ! Those application are intended for submission on the google summer of code site. I think both Clojure developer and google will eventually get them if i understood the system right.
Thank you very much for the editing help proposition, it would be terribly helpful, since i'm not used to write long prose in english :) The markdown source for the applications is disponible on my github pages repository<https://github.com/raph-amiard/raph-amiard.github.com>. A lot of the text is shared between the two applications. I'm gonna look more seriously into the ClojureScript to gambit scheme compiler, but from a preliminary look, it seems like there is mostly the emit function/methods changing, like i thought. It would be interresting to modularize the backend in clojurescript, and then modify clojure-scheme to fit the new modular backend scheme. I have more trouble understanding the CinC project. Is it an attempt to port the Clojure java compiler to clojure ? I'm gonna look at the code more closely this afternoon. Thanks !
