Clojure is an immutable language built on top of mutable hosts. Interop is handled beautifully. A go hosted Clojure (gojure?) would probably be fine.


Calling Clojure from Java is not remotely what I would call beautiful; it's a lot of Strings and pain (especially when you compare to calling Scala from Java). Calling Java from Clojure is substantially more elegant (it requires a structured FFI but Clojure is good at those).


I don't know if it would be an exact clojure clone, would need a few tweaks and the addition of native channels.
