You keep pointing to Neal's proposal, but one example doesn't connote a trend. Let Neal champion his own proposal. While having a preliminary process might save some people some time, it's not something I'd spend time on. I doubt anyone else would either. Frankly, I hope the Java programming language *doesn't* change much more. I certainly don't want to do anything to encourage more change. In 5 years, Java will look a lot like C++, and we'll look back and say that we should have just stopped 5 years ago.
