Thanks so much for maintaining this project, Alan. It has been instrumental to my journey learning Clojure. I work for Roam Research, and our founder, Conor White-Sullivan, is also a huge fan. We would love to talk to you further about the future of 4clojure. Please email me back if you're interested.
