Clojure + Terracotta: We Have REPLs!

Update: The Clojure + Terracotta integration is (I believe) feature complete. Details at http://paul.stadig.name/2009/03/clojure-terracotta-update.html.

Commentary

This is obviously an example of the "shared everything" approach. It's neither perfect nor complete, but it's a start. There are still some non-portable classes that need to be reworked, for some reason the second VM is printing the REPL prompt readably even though *print-dup* (as you can see) is false, I still haven't worked out the problem with *in*, *out*, and *err*, etc. etc.

It's still very raw, but I'll see if I can't push to github in the next day or two. This is an exciting first step!

Hi --

I'm interested in any recent progress Terracotta + Clojure progress that you've made. Any news?
