Thanks for sharing! Would you be willing to contribute ob-julia.el to the Org-mode repository? I don't see you listed as an Org-mode contributor (see [1]), so to do so you would likely have to complete the FSF copyright attribution. Please let me (and more importantly Bastien) know if this is something you'd like to do, so we can help get julia support into Org-mode. Additionally, it would be nice for your excellent introduction to be added to worg, and for julia to be listed as a supported babel language (see [2]).
