Groovy is a very flexible language with an elegant and approachable syntax.

It provides fantastic support for concurrency with gpars.

It provides the ability to write static or dynamic code.

It integrates seamlessly with Java.

I feel groovy has created it's own space in the ecosystem, continues to grow and has a bright future.

The concurrency support with gpars is a really killer feature. I'd urge everyone to take at least just take a look at it. Extremely easy and made very "natural" with Groovy syntax. Yeah you can do concurrency with about every other language, etc. but this is within a JVM context.
