I don't think I'd heard of Scala at the time, or it was a very immature. I'd still make the same decision, as the Erlang VM is better suited to supporting the actor model, particularly in failure scenarios.

Hi Damien,

One more question for you.

When you were investigating languages early on (with "CouchDB" idea in
mind), what was the one BIG reason that you DID NOT like Scala over Erlang ? I know about all the many differences. I'm just looking for your opinion
at that time you made your choice.

Thanks,
Thad
