Off-topic: are you at liberty to discuss the extent of Scala usage at

Did they replace Rails with Scala/Lift?! :D

You guys both have very valid points.
Lift is still stabilizing API's for a month or two (AFAIK) till 1.0
which is to be a pre-alpha or maybe alpha release? (this needs TBD)
I can imagine that from adoption part there is still a lot of

Wow, thanks for the feedback.
I should have been more clear as to what I meant by High Risk. I'm

Lift/Grails/Django/Rails/Seam/JSF/Spring/Struts (etc..) have their own
quirks and if you try to deviate too far from the paradigm, you'll run
