Indeed, it is, in the world of java source files.
And indeed, even in the IDEs, it is possible to have both jars in the
classpath and then gain the same benefits I myself cited above in the
thread.
Maybe I was confused because I made a parallel between java classes <>

Isn't it somewhat standard procedure in the Java world (or at least the
Maven world...sorry to bring that up again :)) to distribute with a
clojure-contrib.jar and clojure-contrib-sources.jar, one being only the
compiled classes and the other only being the source files?

I use clojure-contrib quite a bit, and I find a lot of value out of
having the clj files in the JAR. First, I find it easier to debug a
project, second there are example CLJ files in the source code on how
to use the libraries, and those are of great interest, and it is much
easier to get to these

There certainly some value for both scenario : having classes seems an
absolute req
There are a bunch of things in the build file that "do nothing without
complaining" when clojure.jar isn't set.
I didn't want to make a radical change to the build file with this
checkin but I didn't want users to not get the pretty printer and
wonder why either.
More generally, I think we need
Hi Tom,
I think that the ant test tasks should depend on the compilation
tasks, and that users will just have to specify a clojure.jar.
Either that or the default test suite should be smart enough to skip
the pretty printer tests with ant.jar not specified.

By (semi-)popular demand, I have added the pretty printer and the
Common Lisp format function (which are really the same package) into
clojure.contrib. It all lives in the namespace clojure.contrib.pprint.
Important: If you want to use pretty printing, you will have to
compile all the source code
