Java 7 Content

There's increasing interest in what might go into Java 7. The spec. lead has given some hints in his blog and a recent presentation.

However, Alex Miller's Java 7 page seems to be the definitive collection of candidate items.

I'm particularly interested in:

• JSR 277 Java Module System
• Java kernel
• BigDecimal syntax improvements
• JSR 203 in relation to async. I/O and UNIX file permissions.
