Appreciating that JDK 1.5 isn't even available yet in early access, it seems to provide some very interesting support that Avalon could take advantage of - specifically the JCP 166 addition of threading utilities (no more defining your own worker threads and management facility).
The threading utilities that will be JDK 1.5 are basically a refactoring of Doug Lea's concurrency utilities that have available for some time as free/open source. You see these utilities used occasionally in some Avalon component work.
Steven, are you already using Doug Lea's stuff in the merlin core?
Not yet - but the entire active meta model is blank sheet of paper waiting for ideas.
Stephen.
