I found some subject material for a blog entry ... - http://weblogs.java.net/blog/jive/archive/2007/07/jsr275_and_why.html
The review period ends July 8th. - https://jsr-275.dev.java.net/files/documents/4333/34956/jsr-275.pdf Of interest is the no vote from Sun: > On 2005-06-09 Intel Corp. voted No with the following comment: > JSR 108 was withdrawn after 3 years without producing an initial > draft. This new JSR appears to be a continuation of that work, but > doesn't have an Early Draft scheduled in the near future. Before > deciding on a standard, more experience with implentations, > exploration of performance impacts in running code (build time[JSR > 269] vs runtime processing) and broader input (perhaps from the > academic community) may be helpful. Experience with packages outside > the standardization process can pave the way for determining what the > best way forward is for defining a Java standard. This JSR looks like > it would benefit from more R&D before standardization. Most of the votes seem guarded - based on previously being burned by JSR 108: > Google is voting yes but with reservations: The API described on > http://www.jscience.org/api/org/jscience/physics/units/package-summary.html > is far too complex. If this API is ever to be included in the JDK it > must be simplified considerably. So do we care?
