I find it sad that some view JVM languages which aren't Java as a testing ground for features which could be added to Java. Other JVM languages are worthy of us

I find it sad that some view JVM languages which aren't Java as a testing ground for features which could be added to Java. Other JVM languages are worthy of usage independent of the Java language. Not everything can be back-ported to Java and keep the language backward compatible.
- pjmlp 13y agoThe main problem is that the enterprise sees: JVM == Java and CLR == C# (or VB.NET for VB shops) Given the size and skills of the said teams, usually you cannot sneak in alternative languages anyway. So for many of us, regardless how much we like alternative languages, those are the ones we are allowed to play with.
