This sounds like an interesting idea. Does anyone know if this could work?

The allure of Shen is that it offers a type system that is, roughly 
speaking, very similar to what you get with clojure.spec. You construct 
"predicates", what Shen calls sequents, which hold about your data. Shen 
goes a step further than clojure.spec in that it offers a way to prove that 
those predicates hold locally to each function and globally through your 
program.

I wonder if it might be possible to feed predicates from clojure.spec to 
the inference engine/type checker from the Shen java port to gain static 
type checking. I wish I had more time to work on this kind of fundamental 
research, but alas I'm merely a working programmer schlepping data to and 
fro.
