Clojurians Log v2

Any of you folks have an experience with Minecraft with Clojure? I am still rather beginner level with the language but would find it really fun to combine a moddable game I enjoy with a learning opportunity and play around with shape creation, etc. A couple concerns have popped up: first, you would think "hey its a JVM language so same interop like Scala or Groovy" but stuff I have read seems to point to this not being necessarily the case with Clojure -- the other is that the libraries other have made for forge or bukkit seem old and unmaintained, not sure if that is a concern. Anyone with more experience have an opinion by any chance?
