A couple of weeks ago ClojureWerkz [1] turned two years old.
We are at 29 projects (not including failed experiments) and kicking.

There have been dozens of contributors, entire major releases
brilliantly managed by people outside of our tiny core team,
and a pretty high bar in project quality sustained [2] [3]. I think it's
fair to say that there have been positive changes in the overall
Clojure library ecosystem, hopefully in part due to how vocal we've
been (102 blog posts on blog.clojurewerkz.org this year alone).

These days many world famous institutions
and companies we respect use various ClojureWerkz projects
to power their products and internal tools. Needless to say,
we did not plan for it in 2011.

So thank you, both users and contributors. There are some new
projects in the pipeline and our values do not change: documentation, sane
release practices,
ease of contributing and backwards compatibility. We love all that boring
stuff.

Here's to another few years!
