Effectively this is both a split into 'Collections JDK' and > 'Collections Structures', and a merge of Collections JDK to Lang. Thinking further... One thing I don't like it is holding Lang 3.0 up. Or the big leap that Collections JDK would go into Lang; that may not feel right once we get there. So perhaps the solution is to do the Collections split of JDK and Structures/Algorithms in 4.0, and think about merging later: Lang 3.0 Collections Core 4.0 Collection Data Structures/Algorithms 4.0 or some set of better names. With Core 4.0 possibly merging into Lang 3.1 etc if it felt right.
