anyone know why storm woud be on 'hold'?

@mcl: They go into some detail on why Storm is on "hold": > Storm is a 'distributed realime computation system' we've used, but it involves a lot of devops, and it's non-trivial to get running in the REPL. Onyx is a more modern, Clojure-centric alternative that we would use instead on our next project, when we have the complex requirements of spreading a pipeline of computational work over a cluster of nodes. core.async would be our first choice when you don't need to spread work over parallel machines or processes, but you still want to the separate work up, and to potentially utilise a number of cores.

thanks @julian, missed that

Michael Drogalis has given lots of great talks on Onyx if you’re interested https://youtu.be/YlfA8hFs2HY
