I have been programming in Java for 7+ years. I am responsible for several site that use struts 2 and Java. In the past year I have been moving toward groovy/grails. I have successfully integrated groovy scripts into production code running srtuts 2. I have also had success with placing an existing struts 2 application into a grails application. The beauty of groovy is that it is built on top of java and compiles to bitecode. Grails is just a convention over configuration approach to a groovy/spring/hibernate or jpa stack. You mantain complete control over all configuration.
