Hello!

I came across this (fairly good imho) article comparing Clojure, Haskell
and Julia in terms of their applicability to scientific computing:
http://arstechnica.com/science/2014/05/scientific-computings-future-can-any-coding-language-top-a-1950s-behemoth/

One of Julia's selling points seems to be Fortran interop. Has anybody
thought of a Clojure-to-Fortran compiler similar to ClojureScript, and how
it could spread Clojure's reach into the Fortran-legacy-rich subsets of
the worlds of academia, engineering, and maybe banking? Or maybe of
extending (if at all possible) ClojureC so that it can interop with both
Fortran and C, in a way similar to what Julia can do, which might increase
ClojureC's popularity? Do these sound like reasonable ideas to you?

Thanks!
Deyan
