imo we should focus on the api first. using java 8 is no guarantee to get a
better api.

as mentioned in a previous thread, we need to re-visit the existing parts
anyway.
e.g. at deltaspike it was quite challenging to merge the existing
approaches until we switched to an use-case based procedure.
we started to write tests to reflect the different use-cases starting with
the most trivial one.
that increases the test-coverage and users can have a look at those tests
to see the usage of the different parts.
furthermore, it ensures that more advanced use-cases won't impact simpler
uses-cases.
in the test-suite we use packages which follow the following format:
[project-package].[area].uc[number].
the use-case numbers don't reflect the priority, however, usually the lower
numbers reflect the most common usages.

i would prefer to try such an approach also for tamaya. it might be a bit
more time-consuming, but we can do everything step-by-step.
moreover, we don't start with random discussions. even if we would end up
with almost no api-changes (which i don't expect), we would get a nice
test-coverage at the end.

regards,
gerhard
