Henri Yandell commented on LANG-532:
------------------------------------

Looking at the comparator code; the main Collections codebase is only required 
by one class (PriorityBuffer uses ComparableComparator). ComparatorUtils isn't 
even a requirement. 

The test code does make use of the comparator package (possibility of 
Collections have a test dependency on Lang if this does move and collections 
resumes activity).

I've copied over the comparators to see what it feels like.

> If and only if Collections be considered dead for 4.x and beyond, then 
> consider if there is any code that wants to be scavenged to live in Lang 3.x.
> Basic rules:
> * No implementations of Collections.
> * If a successor of Collections defined, then not something it has.
> Basically potential additions to java.util.Collections I suspect.
