Once you are happy with them, I think they'd fit very well into the
incubator, thanks for volunteering! Feel free to send them to me as the

FYI: the array class would probably land in the following
package:com.google.gen2.collection.client, as we already have a JsStringMap
under development there.
Cheers,
Emily
