Jay Zimmerman, in a eWeek story: Jochen will be able to focus his efforts exclusively on Groovy development now, which will help ensure that Groovy 1.0 is released by the end of 2006 and future enhancements in Groovy will be addressed at an accelerated rate.

Also from the article:

Darryl K. Taft, writing for eWeek: Big Sky Technology is putting its marketing muscle behind the open-source, Java-based Groovy language to take the project to a 1.0 version and beyond to ubiquity.

Jay Zimmerman, president of Denver-based Big Sky, said the company is funding the development of Groovy and has secured the services of Jochen Theodorou, the chief Groovy contributor. Big Sky is the company behind the No Fluff Just Stuff Java symposium series.
