Strange why the groovy DSL isn't more common; to me it looks much cleaner and elegant compared to Java and XML.

I understand that developing using blueprint will make the deployment easier. However I have some reservations about blueprint. 1) It is in xml and not java so thats additional layer to work with. 2) Unlike in the java dsl, you cannot split the routes into several files and import them. 3) A lot of the documentation provides most of the examples for the java dsl. 4) The java dsl is easier to read for existing java developers. 5) Will blueprint exist in 5 years? Do you as Camel users/developers have any specific thoughts on this?
