Thanks Jacques. I actually don't know the answer but I will be surprised if everyone will agree to switch from Minilang to Groovy (at least not in the short term); by the way I still see a value in the effort of cleaning and making Minilang more consistent (maybe I would not spend much of my time on the effort, because at the moment I see a greater potential in Groovy, but I understand that it makes sense to invest time in that great language); even if at some point in the future we will decide to migrate out of Minilang, having a cleaner set of scripts will greatly help the migration.
