Would it ever be possible to use something like Python or Ruby for modding/plugins? Seems as if it'd be more lightweight/easier than loading up Java compilers.
Well, since Java is running already, anything in Java is more leightweight than firing up yet another interpreter. The compiler is only needed at compile time, not at runtime. But I can see how a scripting language is appealing for plugins. Maybe at some point in the future...
