I do not think we should do this ,as there are legitimate occasions where HashMap may be used for performance, particularly when we have many insertions, one iteration, and iteration order is not exposed (e.g. the contents are re-sorted in another container). I think being too dogmatic, and in particular, allowing a simple rule-of-thumb enforced in maven to override the judgement of an experienced developer might not be the best approach. > Ben I have been known to use a couple of the other Map implementations; such > as ConcurrentHashMap (and we also have our own WeakHashMap) - we may need to > check if these implementations suffer the same weaknesses as HashMap.
