Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors;
           Appointment of Principal Officers

(b)   Resignation of Directors.

On April 11, 2005, Mr. Stephen P. Jeffery resigned as a member of the Board of
Directors of Clarus Corporation (the "Registrant"). Mr. Jeffery's resignation
was the result of his stated desire to devote more time to other business
interests and not the result of any disagreement with the Registrant or the
Board of Directors.

In connection with Mr. Jeffery's resignation and in consideration of his past
service to the Registrant, the Board of Directors accelerated the vesting of the
last 20,000 tranche of a 60,000 stock option award grant to purchase shares of
the Registrant's common stock so that such options are immediately exercisable
by Mr. Jeffery instead of exercisable after December 6, 2005. The Board of
Directors also extended the period that options held by him to purchase 60,000
shares of the Registrant's common stock would remain exercisable, from July 11,
2005 to December 6, 2005.

                                    SIGNATURE

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned hereunto duly authorized.

Dated: April 13, 2005

CLARUS CORPORATION
