Understanding tap

Not sure why two wouldn't compose. You should probably wrap values in namespaced maps and dispatch with multimethods for your add-tap handlers. You could probably do pub sub pretty easy over that. But I'd like to see more examples with tap too. What alternative design were you thinking of? --

Okay, let's call it a Context Specific Vocabulary (CSV) ;) Every function is at least a mini DSL, IMO. And as promising as Spec sounds, I still haven't trained up on it because of the size of the new vocabulary (or DSL or whatever you want to call it) it introduces. Adding semantics is expensive
