I'm just reading an article about the Scala programming language - from 
my first impression it has some traits that might make it an interesting 
candidate for a next generation SDL for POV-Ray.

The language is based on a Virtual Machine (the Java VM, to be precise), 
and appears to support both object-oriented and functional paradigms.

Just a quick thought thogh; I'll have a closer look at it soon.

Hi

do you mean the article about scala at the german c't (21)?
Some interesting concepts in view of a programmer.

Processing (www.processing.org) is another Java variant that is heavily used by
beginning programmers but highly extensible for advanced programmers.
