It says "Apache Jena is considering a compatibility interface that provides and
consumes Commons RDF objects."
I'm wondering if there have been any experiments to that end, or whether Jena
is waiting for some resources to explore that possibility? I would be happy to
give a go at making a simple module that just implements the current Commons
RDF API types over
jena-core in a simple way, to get things started.

I have some code that mocks up commonsrdf over Jena in the sense that it
uses jena behind the RDFTermFactory; that's the easy bit. It's limited
and definitely not a bridge between the two APIs. It is merely
exploring the commonsrdf work.
It would mess up the existing interfaces no end to add commonsrdf as
interfaces to Model/Resource; and Graph/Triple/Node is generalized RDF
so the type model does not fit.
It needs a bridge module and a proper module would be good.
((I also have https://github.com/afs/commonsrdf-container which is even
more minimal than the "simple" implementation. Not Jena related.))
Some other interesting projects:
An in-memory dataset : JENA-624
Have a specifically in-memory DatasetGraph to complement the current
general purpose dataset.
Bruno is working on JENA-632
In fact, I can see commonsrdf being at the center of a new API, very
Java8 specific, that is oriented around processing RDF stream style -
see the email from Paul Houle.
Or take StreamRDF and add java8-stream-ness around it (maybe not
directly changing but making it the source for java8-streams - some
issues of pull-streams and push-stream styles here which are hard when
efficiency is considered).
