“Is scala the next thing….” “Groovy this…” “The Java replacement…”

To all those guys, I can just say :
- If you want/need to use another language or a scripting language use it
- If you don't like Java or if it doesn't fit your needs, use something else
- If you want Sun/Oracle to add some features to the JVM, write them an email
- If you want Sun/Oracle to support your scripting language as a first class citizen, which is not likely to happen for obvious reasons, write them an email
