Jonas Boner is working towards an OTP implementation in Scala. Definitely sounds to be a great exercise and may well prove to be a viable and scalable implementation on the JVM. We are seeing more and more implementations of highly scalable systems using Erlang/OTP - Facebook, ejabberd, CouchDB, Mochi* to name a few. And not without a reason. Erlang/OTP provides an awesome stack that fits the scalability-reliability-distribution space like a glove.

Mnesia in Scala. Now there's an idea...
AlainODea replied ago:
It is still possible and probable for Scala actors to share pointers to mutable objects. There are many other reasons why full OTP reliability is not currently achievable in Scala. Patching over obvious gaps in distributed messaging with yet more Java libraries is unlikely to make it more reliable. Combining Kilim and Scala would make it possible. I will be interested when that happens.
