So, not reasons why a developer who doesn't know Clojure should try it, but rather what a developer who already wants to use Clojure might say to convince management? Interesting. How about: Clojure is a small, powerful language that compiles and runs on the JVM, so no new infrastructure. Plus is lets you get more done with less code, which is good for development schedules and maintenance. It's particularly good at taking advantage of multicore hardware without as much programmer overhead as Java. Maybe not quite a pithy as you want, but you're the journalist -- you can edit it down, right? :-) --Chouser --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
