That would be utterly stupid; in part because I contributed to the development of the two Sun JDK classes in question. The JDK versions weren't designed for concurrency, the dl.util.concurrent versions were. I'll see if I can get the Sun legal folks to make some kind of clarification. Any suggestions about what in particular I should ask for? Warning: I hate dealing with these kinds of issues, so you may need to nag me about it :-) -Doug
