In my personal view they are welcome and an important part of growth of NiFi. These are of course non-trivial contributions both to do and to bring in but that is ok provided both sides know it will take time. JVM friendly ones are less of a big deal of course but never the less this is the sort of things lots of folks will have strong views on I suspect.
Let's pick one off the list that you care about the most and see where we can go with it. You like Clojure and it is JVM friendly. Let's start there ?
