Xyling Java Blog: Is Java really Dying?: "Came across this article in BusinessWeek" & John Reynolds's Blog: Ja-va-saurus and the Asteroid: "Now, dynamic languages are indeed hot, but Groovy, JSR223 and Mustang are bringing that stuff to those who like such languages. Not to mention the future improvements of the JVM for dynamic languages (continuations, invokedynamic). The problem is that people still confuse the Java language with the Java platform. And leveraging the Java platform for dynamic languages will be huge. For one thing, perhaps Rails is a great framework, but does Ruby offer a super optimized, serviceable etc. VM like HotSpot? Is the RoR stack as highly integrated and optimized as Tomcat or other similar Java Web containers? Important questions when you move from tutorials to mission critical apps... Groovy (and perhaps other languages) will inherit all the Java platform technology for free." - IMPORTANT
