I'm on the process of choosing a web framework for one of my (scala 2.8)
project. I know Tapestry 5, but as we are likely to have a lot of AJAX
to deal with, and T5 is not the best tool for that. I looked at gwt, but
I'm not sure I like what I'm seeing.
So, Lift could be a great option, but as I said, the project is in Scala
2.8, and so I would need to now if a time frame is broadly known for
Lift port to that version.
My problem is that I need to be able to start developping the web ui as
soon as possible (I'm quite under pressure for that), even if it means
living with a beta version of Lift for the next 3 months (or more).
So, my question is: does a branch for Lift with Scala 2.8 is expected
pretty soon (even if the final comes only in months, it's obvious that
it will be after Scala 2.8 final, and we do know that it is not yet
here), or does that seem pretty unlikely ?
Thanks in advance for the help,

I'm curious because Scala 2.8 schedule seem to be
a fairly moving target.

You feel this confident about Scala 2.8 release by Jan?

That's so a great new :)

I never doubted that, it was just that as long as 2.8 wasn't released, I
didn't know how much time you will to spend on it.
So, that's a really interesting new, it will have it's weight in the
choice :)
My finger is telling me that we are going to see a "release candidate
for the release candidate" hummm tomorrow ;)
