There are so many (new) languages for the JVM; its becoming a curse of plenty! (Not complaining.) Its a great platform, and invokedynamic will usher in a whole new generation of languages.

Lets just hope the Java 7 actually happens given the change of ownership, and I would love to see John Rose's call for programmatic access from Java (http://blogs.sun.com/jrose/entry/jsr_292_support_in_javac) realized. (ASM is great stuff, but I'll admit that its not a great joy to use for me.)
