Hi Sandhya,
The folks on net-dev@openjdk.java.net will be interested too.
Yes, net-dev is the best list for this.
One other thing to mention is the SocketOption interface and the
setOption/getOption methods. This allows for platform or JDK-specific
specific socket options, it also allows it to be implemented by the
NIO SocketChannel and friends.

and there is the jdk.net API which extends this to the java.net socket
types.
I think a Java SE API would be fine if it is widely and consistently
implemented
across all the reference platforms and if it does not cause
compatibility issues.
If it only works on some platforms then maybe jdk.net could be the place
for it.
