From the webpage:
In lieu of an official style guide from EPFL, or even an unofficial guide from a community site like Artima, this document is intended to outline some basic Scala stylistic guidelines which should be followed with more or less fervency. Wherever possible, this guide attempts to detail why a particular style is encouraged and how it relates to other alternatives. As with all style guides, treat this document as a list of rules to be broken. There are certainly times when alternative styles should be preferred over the ones given here.
Question: Is it a sign of maturity for a programming language to start having religious wars over styles?
Just curious. Thought this might mark a milestone in the development of Scala.
