Yes, it all went in a good way. However, this was a scary time, observing Typesafe (now Lightbend) slowly transforming into a garden variety enterprise Java consulting shop, and watching more and more core platforms like Akka being adapted back to Java... Things look better now. :)

Good to hear! I agree :-) It was a necessary transition because we need to keep attracting customers that initially are reluctant to invest in Scala training. We've found our Java APIs to be a potent gateway drug to Scala, with many of our customers who begin with the Java APIs quickly realizing they'll be even more productive with Scala :-)
