Folks, I've been doing Scala for three years as of today. I wrote a blog post about it: http://blog.lostlake.org/index.php?/archives/97-Happy-3rd-Anniversay.html
There are a lot of people to thank for making Scala the great thing it is today. Martin has led his EPFL team to bridge academia and commercial, vigorous debating and politeness, functional and object oriented to bring us Scala and the Scala community. It's been 3 years for me and I can't think of a better language or a better community than what Scala has evolved into. Thanks, David -- Lift, the simply functional web framework http://liftweb.net Beginning Scala http://www.apress.com/book/view/1430219890 Follow me: http://twitter.com/dpp Surf the harmonics
