I don't think that you can do full j.u.c w/o support from the vm. Are you saying that what is there works w/ the oswego code? It ok if its not complete... We can continue w it once we get a v5 vm.
Note to all - no need to only contribute things that are complete. We're also glad to have incomplete things in svn that people are working on / contributing to here in the project....

As promised, we've checked EDU.oswego.cs.dl.util.concurrent package ( http://g.oswego.edu/dl/classes/EDU/oswego/cs/dl/util/concurrent/intro.html) and while it works beautifully, it seems to not be compliant with the specs for java.util.concurrent (e.g. it is missing some pieces, such as ThreadPoolExecutor, etc). Therefore, I am hesitant of adapting our harmony-compliant package to it, as it may not be acceptable by Harmony once we are done. What do you think? As stated above, we've checked with JSR166 (http://gee.cs.oswego.edu/dl/concurrency-interest/index.html ) and we are ok with it, since it complies with the spec. However, I am not sure we can use this as part of Harmony, can we? Daniel
