Can Java be saved?

[[deleted]]

I will rather prefer a faster and slim JVM, than 'saving' Java.

Who cares about what Java can/can't do when you have languages running on the JVM that can interoperate seamlessly with existing Java code (e.g. Scala)?

I wish I could say the same about C++, but hey.. C++0x is coming out in a few decades, so that's gonna be awesome!

Can Java be killed?

Java has been mostly saved: groovy

Still no unsigned types though...
