Google has started work on some collections, seen at code.google.com.
These currently extend Java 5, but by release will be targeted at Java
6 with Java 5 a backport branch.
I, personally, would like to play with this, and thus I want both a
Java 5 and a Java 6 VM available to work with, so I can insure that
any usages and changes do not bite me in unexpected ways.
To be clear, I do not need Java 6 this weekend. I do want it in the
'weeks at most' timeframe if I am going to be able to use my mac to
play with this code. Like Google Web Toolkit (currently on 1.4 and
working like demons to get to 1.5), it is nice to work with code that
is open source and available freely to all.
