Following on from the previous LSUG talk we will take a look into how Scala uses an enhanced version of the Java interfaces called traits to add new functionality to not only your own classes but also to existing Java classes. This will go in depth on how to include multiple traits in a single class and why there is no multiple inheritance problems that have traditionally caused problems. as well has areas of pattern matching and generics If there is time, there will be a demo of Kevin's Autoproxy plugin and how traits are used a part of this library.
