Tool to convert Maven pom.xml to leiningen project.clj

Question

I want to use the leiningen checkouts/ directory feature, but this feature requires that the project under checkouts/ checked out directory contains a project.clj. I have a project (pallet) that has a pom.xml file but no project.clj file.

The data encoded in both project files is similar (name, version, description, dependencies, repositories) and I'm wondering if anyone knows of an existing tool to convert a Maven pom.xml to a leiningen project.clj file.

Here's some code written by Tom Hickey especially for this purpose - https://gist.github.com/1990327
