Hi Dominique,

Yes. I'm very busy (right now in fact!) deploying a concurrent WebObjects 
application that uses Scala.
I'm hoping to present this as a case study for the "Scala & WO" track at this 
year's WOWODC.

In the meantime, i'm keeping notes on the wiki:

One notable caveat is AFAIK the Scala Eclipse IDE still doesn't officially 
support mixed Java + Scala projects.
(Importing Java libs or frameworks is fine. i.e you may factor out your Java 
code into frameworks)

If you do have mixed Java + Scala projects it works best if it's mostly one or 
the other - like ying yang :)

nsarray.objects.toList

(This works cos of Scala's implicit conversion between java Array and Scala 
Array)

Thanks,
Ravi
