ClojureScript is not executed on the JVM.

But it does have a fairly tight integration with clojure, and also uses the JVM-based closure compiler. However, I'd way rather see a clojurescript runtime for v8 than another language "inspired by" clojurescript.
Do you mean a ClojureScript compiler compiled to JavaScript? ClojureScript can be compiled and run in v8 just fine right now.

when this is done. Some people are working hard on it.

I think he means ClojureScript completely divorced from the JVM, so you don't need a Java infrastructure to develop/compile ClojureScript.
How do you compile clojurescript without the JVM?
V8 already is a ClojureScript runtime, isn't it?
