I like the idea of using Scala inside ServiceMix for the reason its just a better language than Java, which you can use without sacrificing any of the Java coolness *(in terms of tools frameworks etc)*.
I've only used Scala once, in a tiny web application combined with Apache Wicket and I can say that the result was great as the boilerplate was significantly reduced. I am definitely no expert, but I'd love to use Scala in ServiceMix5. -- *Ioannis Canellos* * http://iocanel.blogspot.com Apache Karaf <http://karaf.apache.org/> Committer & PMC Apache ServiceMix <http://servicemix.apache.org/> Committer *
