I've read that Oracle wants to invest into another language than Java:

"On the other hand, Oracle has been particularly supportive of alternative JVM languages. Adam Messinger ( http://www.linkedin.com/in/adammessinger ) was pretty blunt at the JVM Languages Summit this year about Java the language reaching it's logical end and how Oracle is looking for a 'higher level' language to 'put significant investment into.'"

But what language could be the one Oracle wants to invest in? Is there another candidate than Scala?
