To the question of “What is Rich Hickey going to unveil at Clojure/West?”, the majority of respondents –a 41% – voted for Clojure-in-Clojure (CinC). Roughly half of these voters think work on CinC will start soon, while the other half think that the work is well under way and kept hidden from us.
Clojure for Objective-C/iOS/cocoa was also quite popular at 22%, while 17% of the respondents dodged the question by answering “Something completely unimagined …” boo!
Of note are also the write-ins, which we are listing after the fancy pie chart.
Now don’t forget to register for Clojure/West today, as the prices are going up after this Friday!
