I just wanted to stop by and say that I've been using next.jdbc recently (after spending most of my clj life using mongo), and I've found it to be superbly documented and straightforward to use. Today I had to insert into a table with odd column names that threw off the default quoting rules, and then I found https://github.com/seancorfield/next-jdbc/blob/master/doc/friendly-sql-functions.md#table--column-entity-names which talks about the next.jdbc.quoted namespace and my problems quickly went away. Thank you @seancorfield!
