How about this for an idea? What if instead of waiting until *after* a new JDK comes out (and in some cases MANY years later), we start with pre-release versions in a branch or something to start using the new language features? This way, we can be ready when the new JDK comes out (or shortly thereafter) to release a compatible version. For example, wouldn't it be great if we had a lambda expression-compatible version of Collections/Lang when JDK 8 hits the streets?
