But the chances of mired.com bringing out a library called 'proclog'
are insignificant. As mentioned before in this discussion, TLDs change
owners anyway so the TLD convention can't be used to definitively
identify an owner. The aim of the convention is to reduce the chances
of library names clashing.

As another suggestion how about clj.handle.library e.g
clj.mired.proclog
clj.weavejester.compojure
clj.acme-corp.dynamite

This separates the clojure namespace from the java one, doesn't tie to
a TLD and reduces the chances of collisions at the library level.

Also, somebody mentioned dropping api/core from the core namespace in
a library. Personally, I'd be happy with that.
