Hi Dan,

Sorry, one further clarification.

If we encounter nestmate attributes in a classfile with a version that pre-dates the Nestmate release, do we ignore them completely (as an unknown attribute) or assume they are in fact our nestmate attributes?

Thanks,
David

I've uploaded what I believe could be a final spec for nestmates, here:

Since October, changes include:

- Tweaks to the explanatory material in 2.11.8 and 3.7

- Some restructuring of the new 5.4.4 text to be a little less disruptive and more clearly define 
"same nest" and "nest host". There are some subtle behavioral differences 
compared to the previous iteration when errors occur.

- Added an example to 5.4.5 to illustrate transitive overriding
