Why not focus on starting with conventions that are achievable with the wildcards we already have, and then expand on the wilcard capability best on actual experience, that *proves* a need for more complexity. I would also suggest that we only add more complexity grudgingly and only when *required* to do so, not simply to placate an arbitrary convention that happens, for no particular reason, to be popular. Case is a good example. Outside of the JavaBean design patterns, I believe Java itself is indifferent to case. If the language doesn't care, why should we? -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
