Just use Scala, Ceylon, Kotlin or statically compiled Groovy instead of
Java. Everyone I know who has ever tried it has never looked back.

Management can be handled easily since all the languages interwork well
with Java, so change over to a new language is incremental, it does not
require a revolution.

Java is dead, long live the JVM.
