It would be helpful to make clojure.spec available as a lib for 1.8. I have opted to backport clojure.spec (a 30-second copy/paste job) into our application running on 1.8 for an easy transition, and maybe others would be more comfortable bringing in a lib until 1.9 is further along. That would also allow related libs/fn-specs to show up and be useful sooner.
