I sure hope so More acceptance of functional programming is always a good thing. I love coding for in Lisp but I haven't really made the leap to production code since I have to support 4 platforms with all code I write for work (Windows, Mac OSX, Linux on x86, Linux on ARM), and deploying Lisp code across all those platforms auto-magically reliably SUCKS. We write all our stuff on the JVM so this would be easy to bolt on and expose to new people.
