OK with everybody.
I want to try two way from what I read :

1) modifying Mina such as it uses natively Java5 concurrent functions

2) or proposing a "forward"backport module that use Java5 native method
 such that we can either link with backport for Java4, or link with the 
"forward"
backport for Java5.

I don't want to go in a wrong direction for Mina.
So I ask you what could be the best, for me of course,
but also for all Mina users ?

1 is simple but I have to change every time I get a new version of Mina.
However it is quite simple (just a search and replace).

2 is not too difficult (just wrap native Java5 functions in 
"forward-backport"
library) and allow to not modify in any way Mina and to continue for others
to develop Mina using more and more Java5 functionnality, at least those
that are implemented in backport (take care of the difference between the
native implementation and the backport one such as the syntax of generic 
types
introduced in Java5).

It depends a lot if Mina will go into Java5 compatibility or not ?
I saw for version 1.1, so perhaps, waiting for this version using
first method is the simplest.
What do you think ?

IIRC, it's a bounded queue.  No?
