Re-include auto-agent.clj?

[Fogus]

I dug up Stuart Sierra's old auto-agent.clj file and patched it to
work again. Is this something desirable to add back into clojure-
contrib?

If so I would be happy to add my patches to the contrib source.

Really, you made it work? Interesting. It wasn't a great piece of
code, kind of a half-assed Cells. Real dataflow -- which I know others
have worked on -- would be more useful. But if anyone wants it, sure.

The code itself was fine, there were a few minor issues keeping it
from working as originally implemented and those are the changes I
made. As for building a more full-blown Cells facility, it may serve
as a base, but you're right that it's not there.

In any case, I defer to the group to decide whether auto-agent should
go back in. The larger question is if a more complete dataflow
solution is desired for contrib.
