  Stuart Sierra presents: Implementing AltLaw.org in Clojure

  This talk demonstrates the power of combining Clojure with large
  Java frameworks, such as:

      * Hadoop - distributed map/reduce processing
      * Solr - text indexing/searching
      * Restlet - REST-oriented web framework
      * Jets3t - Amazon S3 

  Join us from 7:00 - 9:00 at Trinity Church in the heart of the
  East Village. Afterward the discussion will continue at the
  Sunburnt Cow on 9th and C.
