Thanks very much, Aysylu, and thanks to Justin for creating Loom and to everyone who's contributed its lifetime. This library for easily manipulable, moderate-scale persistent graphs occupies a useful niche in the Clojure ecosystem. I'm starting to review the open pull request and issues. If you have a particular feature that you'd like to see, or a use case that you'd like to see Loom work toward supporting, please let me know. One things that I particularly hope to improve is the ability to easily visualize and interact with your graphs. Graphviz is a nice starting point, but it's limited to static images. In previous projects, I've interfaced Loom with JUNG (http://jung.sf.net) to add interactive, Swing-based graph visualizations. As a library, JUNG is getting rather stale (its last release was in January 2010), but some of its facilities and APIs may serve as inspiration for future directions. I've pulled some of the interface code out of a previous project, cleaned it up, and added better support for the Seesaw library for using Swing from Clojure (http://github.com/daveray/seesaw). This is not likely to be immediately useful to anyone, but it's a nice proof-of-concept. You can give it a try from http://github.com/pataprogramming/loom-jung There is a short walkthrough on using the library to visualize simple graphs. Doing anything more complicated will likely require digging into JUNG's (exceedingly ugly) API, but it's enough to play around with. The library is also available from Clojars: [pataprogramming/loom-jung "0.1.0"] Paul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
