Maybe I just need to dig into this more deeply, but I find any form of
Pair or Object[2] class being exposed as a public interface of
commons-collections a bit questionable.

RE: [collections] pairs package name

2003-12-03 Thread ASHWIN Suresh
"data" would be fine but somehow I feel a name like that is too generic. 
I mean, it's all data! So, the name did rather describe what the classes do
with data.

So, one might call it: 
oacc.dataholders

Or, if that is long, how about just  oacc.holders

Or something that describes that these elements hold/have data.

o.a.c.c.data could work.

some other ideas:
o.a.c.c.types
o.a.c.c.elements

Why can't these all just go with the maps?

The pairs package name is perhaps not quite right. I would like the

to hold all non-collection data structure:

How about renaming the package to data?

KeyValue is not directly associated with maps - its a free form key value
pair. MultiKey could also be used in a List or Set.
