Especially after looking into this: http://rosetta.alhur.es/compare/Ceylon/Kotlin/# http://rosetta.alhur.es/compare/Ceylon/Kotlin/# which another guy posted here, it's pretty clear that NOBODY wants ceylon. Why? Syntax. Scala, Kotlin are loved by many cause of one simple fact. Their syntax. Ceylon tries to do something very differntly, which many people won't like. I mean lets look here: variable value doors = [ for (_ in 1..count) closed ]; nobody even understands this. and this is the first "real" line. then look at Kotlin: val doors = Array<Boolean>(100, { false }) everybody will understand what it does, you don't even need to know kotlin.
