- paulitex 16y agohow could that possibly be known? Hopefully never, if you ask me.
- andrewcooke 16y agofor what it's worth, there's nothing magical (or random) about computer languages - they tend to become more stable over time because they (1) reach some level of internal consistency and (2) become more popular (pressure for backwards consistency). so yes, it probably is possible to answer this question to some degree if you've been watching scala grow. i haven't, which is why i asked.
- fauigerzigerk 16y agoI see only library changes in this announcement, so apparently the language itself is rather stable.
