Core development

See the Clojure Confluence wiki for full details on how core development is handled.

Coordination of development efforts happen on the development mailing list, on the Confluence wiki, and make use of the JIRA bug and issue tracker.

Although Clojure and the contrib libraries all have homes at GitHub, pull-requests are not accepted. All core development happens via JIRA, patches and the Confluence wiki.
