Hello, Not a great contribution to the debate, but just a word on the terminology: reusing package which already has a strong meaning in java may not be a good idea, I think.
I think lib or library could be interesting, but it has also been attributed a meaning more similar to "ns description" in clojure (and I regret it, but that's another story). So maybe just "jars/jar" (but that may seem too low level or java oriented), or as in ivy/maven "dependencies/dependency" (or "deps/dep" for short) ? Or or ... something different from package :-) 2009/8/7 Howard Lewis Ship <hls...@gmail.com> > > Or really work this into core and add :packages to the (ns) macro. > > On Thu, Aug 6, 2009 at 2:30 PM, James Reeves<weavejes...@googlemail.com> > wrote: > > > > On Aug 6, 10:16 pm, James Reeves <weavejes...@googlemail.com> wrote: > >> (package/get "compojure" "0.2") > >> (package/get "clojure-contrib" [:>= "1.0-alpha3"]) > >> > >> (ns example > >> (:use clojure.contrib.json.read) > >> (:use compojure.html)) > > > > I had another thought once after I posted.
