Please quote me accurately - i quite clearly said a bank should not be voting on Java 7 and 8 when there are others that should or better choices. Banks know best about banking they should thus definitely be on JSRs that involve stuff closest to their expertise. > Now where did you ever get the impression that I said that?!?

For me Google, JBoss, Spring, Apache, and others like that are more "experts" relating to what should be in Java7 or 8 than a bank. When they decide on what goes next in Python 4000, they ask Guido they dont ask a Bank. Its about picking those closer to the community and general purpose computing when dicussing the future of general purpose computing features like Java 7 or 8. > Completely agree. > > >> >> Bloch, basically blocked Closures from an earlier adoption, Very wrong >> move and I honestly believe in hindsight he would revert his decision >> > > Now you have really no idea what you're talking about, please stop > spreading this nonsense. > > >> >> I don't care that Lee was a Computer Scientist.
