Anyone?&lt;p&gt;I really would love to see a list of testimonials and anti-testimonials of people from various fields that switched to Clojure and either got much more done or got burned.&lt;p&gt;Sorry, I realise that this is a wee bit off the main topic.</text></comment>

Then I realized they thought I was talking about Google&apos;s Closure Library.  Argh!  I guess this wasn&apos;t on the radar.&lt;p&gt;This shows a lot of promise, and it would be great if App Engine could become (in a way) Clojure&apos;s Heroku.</text></comment>
