In my world the JVM is a non-starter. I don't care if it fits in a ring ( http://www.javaworld.com/article/2076641/learn-java/an-introduction-to-the-java-ring.html), culturally it just won't fly. Even Forth has a better chance of making it than the JVM.
Re: Zulu embedded - "Intel/AMD x86. Please contact us for availability of ARM, SPARC or other support packages." doesn't work for us. Re: Lua, and other lisps, sure we could go that route. We already have Lua in our devices. <shrug> I have a very specific use case in mind that I think Clojure would be especially well suited for that Lua just doesn't help me in the same way. YMMV. I'm sorry you don't like this question. I can assure you that I'm not some naive wild eyed Clojure fanboy as your responses suggest. I'm simply asking if anyone else is interested in making this possible, I'll put you down in the "no" and "hell no" columns. ;-) I'm sure Rich got a lot of "aren't there already enough actual Lisps that have been used forever" when he started Clojure. I'm glad they did not deter him. Take care.
