There was some talk in the IRC channel on Friday about "releases"

http://clojure-log.n01se.net/date/2009-03-20.html#10%3a17

One of the things mentioned was adding some way to detect (at runtime) the
version of Clojure. I realize it is more complicated because we're on the
bleeding edge here and we're talking about SVN revisions not necessarily
releases, but it would be nice if swank-clojure or clojure-mode could say,
"Oops! You're running SVN revision < 1287. Go fish."

New users and experienced users alike get confused (and I don't blame them)
with some of the breaking changes that trip up the emacs support.

Perhaps at the very least, maybe the emacs support should come bundled with
a compatible snapshot of clojure, and you wander away from that at your own
risk. Is this a worthy design pattern to emulate? I think compojure does
something like that.
