Looks interesting to me, and what you describe is in my eyes a sound approach. Seems like you've been thinking about this for some time, esp. considering the talk you gave recently. Unfortunately I weren't there, but when one gives a talk on this topic, it's evident one has thought a lot about it. What I found lacking was how one should design the Clojure core of Clojure-metal. Should one simply convert Clojure as it is right now, or should one take into account the lessons learned from creating Clojure? I'm sure Rich has some ideas on what should be done differently from what is currently done in Clojure right now, though perhaps aimed for the JVM implementation, and not in general.
