I've recently tried to use play with scala on a new project after having had a very pleasant first experience with play/java, but found the overall experience much much less convincing. IDEs often don't work well with the language, and some key parts of the framework such as ORM seem still a work in progress. Anyone else had the same feeling here ? I came to the conclusion that play should advocate the use of java as the preferred language if they want to grow their user base even more.
