HOPL

As I’ve mentioned a few times before, Rich Hickey has been working on a paper for the HOPL 4 conference and I’ve been doing some additional data analysis for him and reviewing it. It’s great!

Miscellaneous

Also, many other things, including some Clojure 1.11 stuff…

Spec 2 - fixed a bug in s/def expansion - thanks Ambrose for finding that!

CLJ-1472 - Graal issue with locking - have been evaluating

tools.build - shh, top secret

So many new and interesting musical things I heard, but here’s a few:
