Well it is the main language that I have worked in for many years now. I did some Perl early on and have done small one off projects in Python and Ruby. I really like how rock solid the jvm is and then there is always Scala and Groovy (mostly Groovy).

Another thing is that in my personal programming the server side isn't really where I hurt the most. Currently I'm more interested in client side stuff. I am learning Flex and ActionScript at the moment in order to convert some code I did in javascript/ajax to Flex.

Recently a team won the DevDerby (" were challenged to create as usable and fully functional a program as possible in only six hours")

They did it using the Play Framework in pure Java. Incidentally the Play framework supports Scala, but this example goes on to show that Java is'nt quite out of the game yet.

Have you looked at webflows in Grails? I believe it's using spring's webflow stuff, but is more grails/groovy-oriented, which might be easier to deal with.

have you looked into lift? It takes quite a few features from seaside, among others. And scala is much better to work with than java...
