It surely seems so, I don't deny everyone of us *feels* that way.
But you can be sure that that's always easier than having to work on code
you do not know with business logic you also do not know of and with all
its bugs and quirks of its own.

Baldridge, David Nolen, Stuart Halloway + other cognitect staff all at

Ha - amen to that!

I think that depending on the project and the kind of file, it does make a
difference. One of the primary problems our team faced when working on a
large brownfield enterprise project spanning several (distributed)
Gary,
Nice point about Rich's role in maintaining the direction and sensibility
of Clojure. I sometimes complain about some choices that have been made
for the language, but overall, it's the clear, sensible design that makes
Clojure a pleasure to use.

Hi Guilherme,
I am not a Clojure developer (I only use it), so maybe I'm speaking
out of line. I would first like to thank you for the initiative; as an
industry, I believe we direly need more quantitative, scientific
studies of our practices, so I'm really happy to see this.
There is of course a
Hi Alex and Leif,
Thank you for the comments. We really appreciate the feedback.Our research
is under development and the answers we are receiving for this survey will
help to better interpret the results and improve our approach.

Hello, Guilherme.
First, let me briefly answer your questions:
a) yes
b) no
c) As Alex said, there is a large clojure community. Also, there are a
significant number of companies using clojure for production software. I
think that would ensure that clojure stayed alive (but maybe not thriving)
Hi Guilherme,
As the language creator and owner, Rich is obviously a critical part of the
team that directs and maintains Clojure and if he was no longer involved
there would be a significant impact. That said, Clojure is backed by a
company (Cognitect) and a community of 10k's of developers an
As part of my PhD research on code authorship, we calculated the Truck
Factor (TF) of some popular GitHub repositories.
As you probably know, the Truck (or Bus) Factor designates the minimal
number of developers that have to be hit by a truck (or quit) before a
project is incapacitated. In our
