Decoupling components within a system, similar to what one would use queues or a messaging architecture for. Used it extensively in two projects (one open source, one for a client) some years ago. Rather than coupling the components via namespace dependencies and a call API, I just had the components passing data via async channels (queues), including pub/sub and topic subscription. Worked great for its intended purpose. -ken -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
