This is troubling news. My proposed refactoring of TaskManager to enable
performance tuning depends on the assumption that, as a com.sun.* class,
it is only used within the project.
In general, we will be severely limited in our ability to progress if we
have to treat all public com.sun.* interfaces as external interfaces.

I vote against such an incompatible change. There are a lot of
classes under there, for example com.sun.jini.thread.TaskManager,
that are utility code employed by downstream developers. I think all
new code should go elsewhere if possible, but changing the existing
com.sun.jini packages would be hard on existing users.

Subject: Java package names
River imported packages of code from the original Sun grant under the
name 'com.sun.whatever'.
How important is it to change that?
