Switching back to Java
The library has been ported to Java from Scala. As much as I like Scala I find myself spending way more time playing with the language than getting things done on the library. I find development in Scala more enjoyable but less productive due to the tools not being available on the same level as those that are available for Java. Hopefully it will return to Scala eventually. Summary of reasons:
- Tools
- Performance
- Wanting to use features from 2.8.0B1 but finding some code written for 2.7.7 no longer working
