Simplified Scala representation of data is desirable for interfacing #99

Closed Ichoran closed 8 years ago

Ichoran commented 8 years ago

Interfacing the Scala implementation to other languages would be simplified if there was a representation of the WCON data that did not use unusual Scala-specific constructs like Either.

Although each library that used the Scala reader/writer could implement its own simplified interface, this would result in a proliferation of different interfaces. Thus, it is better to write a common one in Scala.
