So, questions to Carin, Alex and Alan (and Ulises): What interests
you? What problems do you have that you'd like solutions for? Knowing
that, folks might be able to point you at existing projects to take
part in (or might confirm no such project exists and they'd be
interested in
First, much thanks to everyone for the feedback and suggestions. It
really helps.
One of my interests is sharing my enthusiasm for Clojure by exposing
it in an accessible, educational and fun way to developers. From this
standpoint, the 4clojure project is very interesting to me. Clojars
makes
I would second this.

There is a vast amount of data out there out on dbPedia. Tapping into
it and integrating to other sites/ services (like twitter) would be

that has kept me going for a while. Just as you said, because I didn't
have to learn 2 things (the domain and the language) I could

Not long ago I was faced with the same dilemma: I am learning clojure
and to practise and improve my skills I'd like to contribute to an
open source project. Which one should I pick?
And then I came across this: http://prog21.dadgum.com/80.html
Enjoy :)

Well, it's not really discouraging. Or at least, I don't see it that
way. I see it more like encouraging to contribute but not regardless

One thing that Clojure has taught me is that code
I'd like to second that. Since I started with Clojure it got me, but I
need some practice, so if anyone needs enthusiastic workforce please
let me know also.
To Carin: Good luck in learning Clojure, should be pretty demanding
but it will be great if we learn it.

I'm learning Clojure also, and have been working through some of the
project euler problems. (Got started on it from the labrepl
introduction.) It has been a lot of fun and I think I'm learning a
fair amount about how the language works.

I have fallen for Clojure. I would love to be able to practice and
hone my skills while contributing something to an open source

some low-hanging fruit for a newish person like me. Any floors that
need sweeping?
