The first article of my new column on Java 7 is now up on java.net.
In the article I discuss the jdk7 and OpenJDK projects at java.net, mention some projects that are being developed openly and might become part of Java 7, and speculate that, because of schedule constraints, Java 7 might include a lot less than we were told to expect 10 months ago.
Future installments of the column will, I hope, go into more depth with specific APIs and will actually include code examples.
