Isn't Java 1.5 going to have this?

Sounds great, as there is already a large codebase to get started with.

pcollections seems like a nice simple name... primitive-collections seems too long, and other combinations of half-words like "prim" and "coll" may just leave people confused.

I'm willing to lend a helping hand... just let me know where to aim and shoot.

The attached proposal is to create a new Sandbox project, named
[pcollections] to house a complete set of primitive collections. Reasoning:


1) [collections] is already large, and primitive-collections and collections
actually have remarkably little in common


2) The current primitive collections code in [collections] is completely
isolated from the rest of the [collections] code, a sure-fire indicator of
being better in a separate project with its own release cycle


3) A positive response from Soren Bak of the PCJ project to integrate a
complete set of primitive-collections together in one place.


This mail is to enable anyone to - object to the idea - come up with a better name than pcollections - to volunteer support (please!!) - or any other comment :-)
