I found myself needing this for a REST API as well, so I implemented an 'unjoin' function which sounds like what you're looking for. Here's a gist, including test case (not necessarily a hugely comprehensive test case, but better than nothing): https://gist.github.com/samroberton/d72cedaf225526d9007a It's working for me for the few use cases I have for it -- I'd be interested to hear whether it works for you too. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
