+1 We have production code here and would like to see 1.3 out even if the contrib issue resolve itself later. The first stable release of 1.3 needs to get used as widely as possible. If some issues emerge in 1.3 it would be better to know it as early as possible. There are significant blocks

2011-09-10 Thread Stuart Halloway
My worry is that the decoupling of core Clojure from contrib will result in contrib authors not caring too much about sorting out the current situation. Also, I think much of the fanfare of the 1.3 release will be shadowed by the contrib situation. And perhaps most importantly, I worry that I

+1 We were in production in Jan 2009 before Clojure 1.0 came out. We face the issue of un-rooting ourselves from the old contrib stuff. After analysis, 97% of the stuff we need from the old contrib is now available in 1.3 as separate libs. The only thing we would like to keep is the trace
