Clojure and Java interop works and that's great. What's really interesting about this situation is that there's one guy committing code in a completely different language from everyone else. Not only that, but it's a language that most would consider "weird". How well is that received by the rest of the team?

Is anyone else picking up Clojure or is it "that one guy's crazy code that no one can understand"? I think we've all seen latter situation even when everyone's coding in the same language and it's a huge red flag.

I'm all for new and different languages seeing business use, but doing it this way seems potentially harmful. But maybe it was a huge success here; I'd love to hear more about it.
