+A generic parent pom.xml for Clojure projects, based on mikera-pom
+
+### Motivation
+
+I needed a generic parent pom.xml for my increasing collection of Clojure projects.
+
+This pom is fairly minimal, and just includes the basics needed to get up and running effectively.
+
+### Some design decisions
+
+ - Currently using `clojure-maven-plugin`
+ - I will always update to use the latest released version of Clojure (currently 1.4)
+ - I've included  `src/main/clojure` and `src/test/clojure` as resource directories. This is so that you can load .clj files at runtime as resources.
