You're right, deciding to use Clojurescript 2.5 years ago was betting on an immature project and a big risk for our business. We've mitigated that risk by curating an extensive test suite and employing human testers to thoroughly exercise our product every time we switch releases.
The problem we're having here is not that Clojurescript is immature, but rather than your decision to change Clojurescript's dependency from 1.6->1.7 means the other 80% of our codebase must now use beta Clojure. This is a big surprise, and forces us to take the leap from 1.6 to 1.7 much sooner than we'd planned. Hence, it would have been good to have some community consultation, or at least some warning.
