I can't speak to the issues that Gary raised, but I can help you with your macro.
(defmacro servlet [servlet-name & meths] `(reify Servlet ~@(for [meth meths] (let [[method-name args & body] meth method-name (hyphenated->camel-case method-name)] `(~method-name ~args ~@body))))) The key here is to keep track of when things are run. The `for` must be run at compile time in order to generate the code we want, so we have to escape it with ~@. The code that the `for` creates (in the form of a list) must then be (quasi-)quoted again by the backtick. Macros certainly take some getting used to.
