Scala, a general purpose programming language designed to express common programming patterns in a concise, elegant, and type-safe way, is now at version 2.10.0.

Scala 2.10.0 smoothly integrates features of object-oriented and functional languages, enabling Java and other programmers to be more productive

Highlights of Scala 2.10.0:

• A class may now extend AnyVal to make it behave like a struct type (restrictions will apply); • The implicit modifier now also applies to class definitions to reduce the boilerplate of implicit wrappers; • x.foo becomes x.applyDynamic("foo"), if x's type does not define a foo, but is also a subtype of Dynamic; • Addition of IsTraversableOnce + IsTraversableLike type classes for extension methods; • Akka Actors is now part of the distribution.

A complete list of changes can be found in the official announcement.
