[Edu-sig] Groovy

[Jason Cunliffe]

http://groovy.codehaus.org/

"Groovy is a powerful new high level dynamic language for the JVM combining
lots of great features from languages like Python, Ruby and Smalltalk and
making them available to the Java developers using a Java-like syntax.
Groovy is designed to help you get things done on the Java platform in a
quicker, more concise and fun way - bringing the power of Python and Ruby
inside the Java platform.
Groovy can be used as an alternative compiler to javac to generate standard
Java bytecode to be used by any Java project or it can be used dynamically
as an alternative language such as for writing scripts or unit test cases. "
