    cool. Now we're waiting for INFRA-17094. 


> JavaDoc for FixedSizeList should warn that modifying underlying list is still 
> allowed and is not prevented

>                 Key: COLLECTIONS-697
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-697
>             Project: Commons Collections
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Ranjan George
>            Priority: Major
>
> I just noticed that it is not explicitly mentioned in the JavaDoc that 
> modifying the underlying list of a FixedSizeList would actually land up 
> modifying the list of the constructed FixedSizeList.  Not sure if this was by 
> design, but at the very list I think the JavaDoc should caution against this.
> Following is a test case that written that you could use to check this.
> {code:java}
> public void testAllowsMutationOfUnderlyingCollection() {
>  List<String> decoratedList = new ArrayList<>();
>  decoratedList.add("item 1");
>  decoratedList.add("item 2");
>  //
>  FixedSizeList<String> fixedSizeList = 
> FixedSizeList.fixedSizeList(decoratedList);
>  int sizeBefore = fixedSizeList.size();
>  //
>  boolean changed = decoratedList.add("New Value");
>  Assert.assertTrue(changed);
>  //
>  Assert.assertEquals("Modifying an the underlying list is allowed", 
> sizeBefore + 1, fixedSizeList.size());
> }
> {code}
