Does anyone know why some of the projects related to Clojure in Clojure are somewhat less active these days? A while ago people were quite excited about it, but development seems to have slowed at least on tools.emitter.jvm. Were there technical reasons to abandon the idea, or was it just a shift of interests/priorities with the developers?

Or maybe I’m just looking in the wrong places

it is hard to address perceptions, but as far as I know it was never a priority for rhickey, so it was never like "once this gets to a certain place we will switch to it"

years ago we didn't have tools.emitter.jvm, so it took a lot of work to have one, but now that we do it takes every little work to have one, so a drop in activity makes a lot of sense

I see, makes sense!
