• Swing Temperature Converter in #Clojure (here, via @stuartsierra) -- another article in a series on how to write Swing applications in Clojure. This is about building tad more convoluted application, a Temperature Converter, similar to the one from the Java Swing tutorials, which needs the creation of an Event Listener class via Clojure's 'proxy'.
  • Sources say "don't know when it'll show up on the site, but shouldn't take long" (via @chrishouser) -- This is about the upcoming book titled "The Joy of Clojure" that will be published as MEAP (think 'alpha') sometime soon!
  • I finally got my project off the ground at http://getclojure.org/ — #clojure folk, please submit examples if you have a minute (here, via @devn) -- This website strives to collect user-friendly examples for all the functions in Clojure core, and requires volunteers to provide those examples. May I suggest that something similar is done for Clojure-contrib?
  • Prevalent Persistence for Clojure (here, via @kicuauan) -- This is a new project that provides a "Prevalent System" type of data persistence to Clojure. In this kind of systems the database exists in-memory and all updates and queries are also executed on the in-memory data, but in parallel all changes to in-memory database are also committed to a log file for later recovery. These kinds of databases are supposed to be very fast!
