[infinispan-dev] IDEA 12 and Scala heads up (and implications in Java compilation)

[Navin Surtani]

Thanks for sending this out Galder. I have a feeling that we need to include some information about making sure people are using the latest version of the Scala plugin. This probably explains why there were issues when I was testing stuff on the community edition (as i had mentioned to you previously) since that was with a clean checkout. 

WDYT? Warn about the Scala plugin versioning?
