Another get-to-know-your-language project that I like is:

   http://pythonchallenge.com

... and can be fun for wizards as well (since part of it is puzzle
solving, not just language learners).

That does go to show that this is often an exercise in showing off the
library, which in Clojure's case is a *little* moot (being the Java
repertoire and all).   Still, there are at least a few constructs and
libraries that unique and it would be fun to design some puzzles that
are (relatively) easy to solve one way, and not others.

Maybe for some of the challenges, it can be hosted on a big
massively-multi-core box (running sandboxed repl's to avoid turning it
into a bot or warez server) and the challenges can be how to handle
massive concurrency.   That class of puzzles could be like Tim B's
Wide Finder excursions, for example, but finding certain needles in
the haystack, like the Python Challenge.
