Re: Helping newcomers get involved in Clojure projects
Great initiative! I've been having the problem of not knowing what project to get into as it often seems daunting. On the one hand, there are a ton of projects, on the other hand, I have no clue where I actually might be able to help. I'm sure a lot of other people experience the same.

You tag some issues in your bug tracker as newcomer or easy. This provides a gentle path into contributing. There is some work involved with this. You have to do the tagging, and there needs to be some capacity in your project for some mentoring. Leiningen is doing this already with newbie tagged issues, which is awesome. Are there any other Clojure projects that are doing this? Would you like to do this with your project? If so, I can try to help. I have been spending a lot of time thinking about the Clojure newcomer perspective lately, and I'd like to work on some things that help smooth that path.

Re: how to check if something is a channel ?
Hey t x, You could use type to check it. It's not very robust (if there are different types of channels, this might not work I guess) but will do the trick: (defn is-channel? [c] (= (type (async/chan)) (type c))) On Saturday, January 11, 2014 4:08:46 AM UTC+1, t x wrote: Hi, In clojure/cljs, what is the simplest way to check if a given object is a async/chan ?

Re: functions inside of go blocks
I'm not really familiar with async, but why would you not be allowed to call that function inside a go block?
