> and whatever Groovy and Clojure have planned Groovy's roadmap just added version 2.3, featuring "_Traits_", which were actually originally announced for version 2.2 [1], but were delayed so Codehaus could get a release of Groovy out the door in time for selling seats to their annual December GrailsXchange conference in London. In June last year, Codehaus/Pivotal had also announced a new meta-object protocol for Groovy version 3.0 [2] to come after version 2.1, but that was postponed early this year to make way for version 2.2. I don't think Groovy really has anything "planned" as you put it, rather they're reacting to external conditions.
