My understanding is the sort of discussion you are referring to has moved to clojure-dev by necessity because of the volume of posts on this list. http://clojure.org/contributing hints as much. My understanding is also that anyone can open an issue in JIRA for something they believe is a bug. > In any case, there was a great deal of useful discussion about the set > issue, and then... silence. Open an issue in JIRA. Ask the folks here who agreed with your point of view to "vote" on the issue. All issues get raised on clojure-dev one way or another (esp. if they have a patch attached). > example, on whitehouse.gov, you can start a petition and if enough people > sign the petition within a given length of time, the president's office will > issue an official statement about it. That's the kind of thing I'm thinking That would seem to match the "voting on JIRA issues" point above. > 2.

Again, open an issue in JIRA with a patch (you have a signed CA on file so there's no obstacle). That will guarantee the issue gets reviewed. -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ World Singles, LLC. -- http://worldsingles.com/ "Perfection is the enemy of the good." -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
