I updated my contribution to the “Dynamic Languages Shootout”.

I upgraded to Groovy 1.5.6 and to Grails 1.0.3.

I updated my contribution to the “Dynamic Languages Shootout”.

I upgraded from Groovy 1.5.1 to Groovy 1.5.4 and from Grails 1.0RC4 to Grails 1.0.1.

First tests have shown performance improvements.

The german magazine JavaSpektrum organized the “Dynamic Languages Shootout” contest for the OOP 2008 conference. The task was the creation of a computer game similiar to Scrabble in a dynamically typed programming language.

I used Groovy and Grails and came 6th place. See the web pages for further information.
