I have a lot of thoughts. First, I'm working on ClojureBridge<http://www.clojurebridge.org/>, which I hope will be one way to help newcomers enter the community. But then where do they go from there? There are all kinds of good learning resources there: a number of great books, 4clojure, videos, for-pay training, etc. I don't know how useful those resources are for true beginners - either absolute beginner programmers or programmers totally new to functional programming. Aphyr's Clojure From the Ground Up and Daniel Higginbotham's Clojure for the Brave and True make some great headway in that direction, I believe. We can get creative and do even more. Happy to hear your thoughts, too. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
