All, Looks like I have some more research to do... A year or so ago I looked into going the Python/PyPy route but it's PPC support had previously stalled. I was intrigued by it's interpreter/tracing JIT structure.
It seems to me that there would be a huge win, similar to the Clojure/JVM, ClojureScript/Javascript bump, for targeting Python. This would allow Clojure to integrate with many libraries for devops, big data, scientific and non-traditional IT communities. Pixie looks pretty nice - maybe that will work. TBD. I think I'd prefer to stay with the Clojure dialect rather than CL/others, partly because I am used to Clojure and partly because one of my use cases requires the same exact code running in an embedded system and in the browser, e.g. don't want to maintain separate versions of key algorithms. Herwig - I like your suggestion re: rclojure. That seems like a harder but more fruitful approach than other porting options. Do you have any references to this kind of approach in other languages? Fergal - I agree, many IoT projects are targeting Javascript which could obviously use ClojureScript. I've been looking at the duktape javascript library (supported by the AllSeen Alliance) but have yet to try it out on our target or running ClojureScript generated code. I will also look at Elixir. Thanks for the feedback everyone.
