I think it's your responsibility to make specs "sufficiently unique". Prefixing with a standard namespace you control seems like it would work.
There is an enhancement winding through jira to support the ability to remove a spec from the registry by doing (s/def ::foo nil) and I expect that to go in soon. https://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-2060 On Monday, June 12, 2017 at 4:26:14 PM UTC-5, Mark wrote: > > > What problem would be solved by each customer having his own registry? > > Name clashes (to be fair, elsewhere on this thread, Sean Corfield > suggested prefixing and this would certainly work). > > > What do you mean by retracting specs?
