With the CL module we sort of did it but not with everything, for example booleans. Another is how far we want to go with the clojure concurrency types which except for agents don't really map well to LFE."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/lfex/clj/issues/comments/156871486","html_url":"https://github.com/lfex/clj/issues/18#issuecomment-156871486","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/lfex/clj/issues/18","id":156871486,"user":{"login":"oubiwann","id":894251,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/894251?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/oubiwann","html_url":"https://github.com/oubiwann","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oubiwann/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oubiwann/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oubiwann/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oubiwann/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oubiwann/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oubiwann/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oubiwann/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oubiwann/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oubiwann/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-11-15T23:41:37Z","updated_at":"2015-11-15T23:41:37Z","body":"The basic things should be pretty straight-forward: lists, tuples (vectors), maps, atoms (keywords). For other edge cases, we'll take it one at a time like we did for the CL library -- keeping a preference for LFE/Erlang-oriented performance and/or conventions. For instance, ``nil`` -> ``undefined`` and we'll use the LFE ``true`` and ``false`` atoms as booleans. \r\n\r\nI want to stay completely away from Clojure's async implementation -- that is from the JVM world and LFE has an awesome set of async standards from a well-known highly-concurrent, fault-tolerant, massively scalable telecommunications programming language ;-) (Never forget Ocean Terror Prawn!)\r\n\r\nFor folks wanting to use an async model that translates well between Clojure and LFE, we can simply point them to the OTP-inspired [Pulsar](http://docs.paralleluniverse.co/pulsar/#behaviors) by @puniverse :-)"}}
