A question for the community.

There are several "projects" that provide a bunch of base level/common 
functions and extensions (similar to those here) beyond core Clojure. And I 
am sure that many people have their own collection of useful utilities like 
this. I know that I do.

clojure/core.incubator doesn't move very quickly for obvious reasons

Maybe the community could establish a common project or set of projects to 
pool these utilities as a common base. This could also potentially feed 
into core Clojure as relevant.

I know this can have complications, it's just a thought to avoid 
duplication of effort.
