Asking for your feedback on sbt + Scala Center announcement

Hello,

I would prefer SBT to give up its DSL and move to plain Scala code. The
only reason I don’t abandon SBT DSL in my projects in favor of a plain
Scala build file is that most docs and examples are written for the DSL,
not plain Scala code, and I still find it difficult to translate.

Also, the SBT docs read something like this: “It looks like simply
assigning values to keys, but don’t be fooled, it is more complicated than
that! That’s why you need to learn about concepts first to understand the
difference!”

And then I read through the concepts and at the end, I still don’t
understand how it is effectively different from simply assigning values to
keys.

 Best, Oliver
