An older version of their README says:

> Closure Library is a powerful, low-level JavaScript library designed for building complex and scalable web applications. It is used by many Google web applications, such as Google Search, Gmail, Google Docs, Google+, Google Maps, and others.

I wonder if they still use it in all those services, or if they migrated to something else.

Note that this doesn't include the Closure Compiler[0], and doesn't affect Clojurescript[1], which has traditionally used the compiler and related bits of the Google Closure library.

it does affect clojurescript, if they don’t have a plan to remove it they will get in big trouble later

Can you clarify what you mean for someone unfamiliar? If Closure Compiler is sticking around (and the linked issue is very clear that it will), what is it that ClojureScript needs to have a plan to remove?

They still use it in all those services.
