Maybe this has been asked before, but what the hey:

Is anyone here on HN using Clojure for commercial production code - websites or otherwise?

Now that Clojure is at 1.0 and a book is about to come out I definitely feel comfortable using Clojure in a production application. It's a thin layer on top of Java and I can easily fall back to Java if I run into problems with Clojure. The IRC channel and mailing list are also available (and very helpful) for asking question.

I'm working on a commercial website using Clojure and Compojure. Should be out of stealth mode in a few weeks.

See http://www.infoq.com/news/2009/01/clojure_production for an example of Clojure being deployed in a hospital.

This is a great reference, better than the clojure.org website.

Not really news, but I'll take it. Clojure's been popping up everywhere lately and I'm currently knee-deep in functional programming in my PL class, so I'll definitely bookmark this for when I feel like learning over the summer. Thanks!
