Hello, I am seeking comments on my package "clojure"; I would also like to request membership in pkg-java so I can maintain the package there. I am not seeking sponsorship at present due to the lenny freeze. * Package name : clojure Version : 0.0.20081217-1 Upstream Author : Rich Hickey <richhickey@gmail.com> * URL : http://clojure.org/ * License : Eclipse Public License 1.0, 3-clause BSD Section : devel It builds these binary packages: clojure - a Lisp dialect for the JVM Clojure is a dynamic programming language that targets the Java Virtual Machine. It is designed to be a general-purpose language, combining the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust infrastructure for multithreaded programming. Clojure is a compiled language - it compiles directly to JVM bytecode, yet remains completely dynamic. Every feature supported by Clojure is supported at runtime. Clojure provides easy access to the Java frameworks, with optional type hints and type inference, to ensure that calls to Java can avoid reflection. . Clojure is a dialect of Lisp, and shares with Lisp the code-as-data philosophy and a powerful macro system. Clojure is predominantly a functional programming language, and features a rich set of immutable, persistent data structures. When mutable state is needed, Clojure offers a software transactional memory system and reactive Agent system that ensure clean, correct, multithreaded designs. The package is lintian/pbuilder clean. An upload would close #454566, #510356. The package is available from: dget http://www.pcc.me.uk/~peter/debian/clojure_0.0.20081217-1.dsc I would be glad if someone reviewed this package for me. Thanks, -- Peter
