This is close to be 6 years ago.
It seems soooo far away, technologically speaking, there wasn't even ant
nor tomcat around!

"We should be willing to embrace ideas like closures, continuations, and
more dynamic typing—even if it means that Java 3 breaks backward
compatibility. I'm putting the finishing touches on a book called Beyond
Java. In Beyond Java, I make the point that conditions are ripe for an
alternative to emerge. I don't pick what the alternative will be. I just
show some of the productivity problems with Java and I show the types of
projects in other languages that are interesting. Frameworks like
Ruby-on-Rails, Seaside and continuations servers in Lisp and SmallTalk
could well become catalysts for another language."
