Clojure goes 1.0
News just in, Rich Hickey has announced the release of Clojure v 1.0.
Great news for the Clojure community and congratulations to Rich. Clojure has been quite useable for some time now, so it will be interesting to see if the notional shift to a 1.0 release will help it to attract any more of the increasing dynamic language mindshare circulating around the JVM. Some may not like its Lispness, but beyond that hurdle, Clojure looks to me to be a leading contender at this point in the race.
