+                       J5 BRANCH
+
+                    -- PURPOSE --
+
+To improve the Commons SCXML codebase using JDK 5 features.
+
+                    -- STATUS --
+
+Under active development.
+
+                    -- DETAILS --
+
+This is an experimental branch to explore improvements to the Commons
+SCXML codebase using JDK 5 features (originally authored for JDK 1.4).
+
+Commons SCXML uses JDK Collections extensively as part of the implementation
+details. Generics can pretty some of that implementation.
+
+While there are no plans as yet to leverage annotations to describe state
+machines (it is deemed relatively difficult to author state machines in such
+a "distributed manner"), it may be possible to use them for lesser tasks
+within the library.
+
+Other JDK 5 language improvements may come handy as well.
