So far the documentation is anoying; every time I read a document it has jargon that is either java PL buzzwords or scala specific.

The most important things in scala seem to be:
pattern matching
first class functions
case classes

new operator syntax for embedded dsls
type inference
implicits

structural (duck) typing
import syntax
collections
actors
