This is something we want to bring to the dev mailing list.

The only problem with this is dropping compatibility with Guava < 19, which 
will probably have a big impact in users. However, if we don't do such a change 
in 2.0... then when?

Like @demobox, I'm a bit hesitant until we know a bit more about the Guava 
versions people are using now, although not that worried by the version gap 
between 1.9.x and 2.0. We already have the [guava/guice compatibility 
build](https://jclouds.ci.cloudbees.com/job/jclouds-guava-guice-compat/) and 
I'd say it should work for 1.9.x too. Despite Guava 16 being the default 
version we use, Guava 19 should be already supported, so users should be able 
to upgrade Guava without upgrading jclouds, when planning a future upgrade to 
2.0.

We should run a Guava 19 build against 1.9.x and, if it succeeds, I'd be happy 
to have this merged as soon as we document a smooth upgrade plan for users 
willing to upgrade to 2.0.
