Re: Success Stories w/US Government Projects
We've had a software product in congress for a while now. The version there isn't clojure, but we've had a number of talks about integrating our newer versions that do contain heavy amounts of clojure. We recently did a complete rewrite of cosponsor.gov (which we had previously written in ruby/js) in clojure for a congressman. It's down at the moment due to changes in the political climate (the guy who paid for it is now out of office). I'm not as familiar with the intricacies of the process as our other developer who worked on the original project. I'd be happy to try to set up a call or connect you via email with the folks who might be able to answer more specific questions about our experience On Friday, August 8, 2014 8:54:08 PM UTC-4, rcg wrote: > > Hello; > > We are looking for Clojure success stories within the US Government. > > If you have a success story you'd be willing to share, this may counter or > help resolve objections to the EPL license that have been raised by > Lawyers.

Re: Success Stories w/US Government Projects
was there any lawyerly review of the EPL as part of your project? On Saturday, August 9, 2014 2:30:10 PM UTC-10, Dylan Butman wrote: > > We've had a software product in congress for a while now.

Out of interest, which aspect(s) of the EPL are your lawyers objecting to? -- paul.butcher->msgCount++ Silverstone, Brands Hatch, Donington Park...

Re: Success Stories w/US Government Projects
These are the specific objections- BTW we are using clojure as part of Server side code for website... 1. "This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York". Not acceptable: The federal government cannot agree to be bound by state law. 2. "Each party waives its rights to a jury trial in any resulting litigation". Not acceptable: Only DOJ can control litigation.
