I would like to add to Roberto's request, a thorough treatment of ns would be great. It has its specific syntax that takes some time to understand, but that you don't use enough to imprint in your brain. It differs between the REPL and the file source, and is a showstopper when you want to try something new and get it wrong. The threads some days ago about :use<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/clojure/can$20we$20please$20deprecate/clojure/i2VzAlT6oqM/1_ayNkgVF6gJ>and a proposal to simplify ns<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/clojure/simplified$20ns/clojure/sIMeJgyPqlM/jp6eBHUGS80J>may be of interest in detailing their problems.
