I know and in fact I had my own version of require long before clojure-contrib was started. But I was glad that it was no longer needed when clojure-contrib.lib was included because something as basic as this needs to be part of the standard distribution. And now despite of these promising developments it seems that I must again come up with a homegrown solution as I can not convince the Clojure community that it should be part of Clojure itself.
