Thanks - I kind of expected this - the previous implementation in contrib for 
1.2 was based on vars and still shows docstrings in the signature on 
clojuredocs.

There is CLJ-304 "contrib get-source no longer works with deftype" which seems 
related.

Too bad that we cannot annotate deftypes (and classes) with docstrings - no 
online docs - no source code retrieval…

Those who care about this should maybe vote this issue up and show it some love 
to get a protocol-based solution for meta-data.
