Start of term for me, I'm afraid.

Well, we currently have the beanshell based approach that JDEE has used
for a long time. This works, and is okay, but I think is problematic in
the long term.

I've build a system which reuses all the Clojure technology.

https://github.com/phillord/jde-with-clojure-backend

This gives us a shell running in the maven project environment, a
mechanism for adding new functionality in the JVM (with Clojure), and a
mechanism for interacting with that functionality in ELisp (via cider).
We could clearly use this to replace beanshell, but at the moment, it is
proof-of-principle only.

For me, this is an experiment. I'm not sure that I have the bandwidth to
pull it forward into a roadmap, especially as I do not code Java
routinely. I'm willing to support this process if someone else wants to
take it forward.
