Hi,

thanks for the suggestion, I just cross-posted this to the Scala group, 
adding a point that could help you help me (damn, my english..) with this 
choice. Here's the extracted part:

Please notice that the API should also have independent functionalities, 
> summoned by the apps, like file management (I want this document from this 
> app, the api knows how/where to fetch it), email sending and FTP handling. 
> Also, timed/recurring functions, like synchronizations between the apps' 
> databases.
