Scala 2.12 release notes

It's a page made Simon Ochsenreither, which I think started out as a copy of the original scala-lang.org, and after he got into ridiculous fights with the Scala team, decided to develop "a fork" out of it for the sake of his own ego. Now he's pushing and publishing it on every conceivable forum and platform, while at the same time whining around on Twitter and elsewhere about conspiracies against him.

So people get confused and he gets kicks out of it, instead of taking a deep breath and rebooting the attempt to work with the Scala and team and Scala Center community platform. Scala 2.12 has not even been officially announced, because they are waiting for authors of common libraries to publish new artifacts first, so they are all up and running when the announcement comes.

At least S.O. had the decency to remove the big fat EPFL logo from the footer, that had been there until a few days ago, giving the impression that this was somehow an official site.

Perhaps it comes with the Romanic name, but Scala inspires a lot of drama. I guess people are passionate about it :)
