Hi, Sorry for the previous mail that I sent by error.
We specified that we wanted to be polyglot-friendly in James and also that for the current people writing code we would start using Scala in some specific context. It's what is written in adr 24 here : https://github.com/apache/james-project/blob/master/src/adr/0024-polyglot-strategy.md I personnally like Scala very much and refactored IMAP search which is a very verbose piece of code today in Java to a more readable Scala version: https://github.com/linagora/james-project/pull/3309 Benoit expressed some doubts about whether that important component should be written in scala or not here https://github.com/linagora/james-project/pull/3309#issuecomment-616367598 I don't know what to think about that: do people will be afraid of reading and/or writing Scala? Will it be a way to make people more interested because Java feels something from the past? I don't really care if this code get merged or not but it's a good occasion to gather people opinions about that and move forward with James as a project. So, what do you think ?
