Martin Kneissl [1] reports that the latest issue of Javamagazin (Germany) [2], one of the most popular within the Java community, is encouraging programmers to take a serious look at Scala. The article "Vorhang auf: Scala verändert die Java-Welt" ("Lift the curtain: Scala changes the Java world") appears in the 04.2009 edition which is now on the streets and should appear on their web site [2] shortly.
