I wanted to get a sense of what (if anything) is planned for commons-chain. I
used this in some years ago, and for various reasons I now find myself returning
to it. In examining the SVN trunk things have not stood still:
- Discussions (and subsequent work) in 2011 to accommodate work as a precursor
to a chains2 from of CHAIN-53
- A fair bit of rework to accommodate Generics/Java 5 support
- DSL like capability introduced
- Refactoring

Of course, the last release was 2008 (1.2), hence is 2.0  imminent, or are there
other issues that require addressing prior to its roll-out? I have looked at
JIRA, and I am aware of some debates via this list back in 2009 regarding the
incorporation of aspects of  Robust-Task from  Min Cha (this has morphed into
Whitetask - see  https://code.google.com/p/whitetask/). In addition I note
guice/spring integration has been raised in some form.

Hence what are the next steps for commons-chain? I am more than happy to get
involved with this.

Steve Westwood
