Your last line applies to me too.
Isn’t one of the touted strengths of Clojure that if you want to do something your way, you can make a library, and you don’t have to wait for or rely on the core language maintainers to accept it as canon?
So whether or not your proposal makes it into core, you can still put it out there and people can still make use of it if they find it useful. Specter looks like a good example of this.
- bjoli 8y agoWell, there was some kind of ruckus about a pretty big change to the compiler that was met with a thanks but no thanks. I completely understand becoming frustrated by that.
- comma_at 8y agoHard to say without context. Was the change discussed with the core team? Did they say yes and then suddenly backed out? Otherwise I don't see much reason for being frustrated.
