No objections, probably a good idea.

Thanks for the compliment.

It'll probably require a beta pre release and wider testing before going to a final release.

I'm bogged down with work and currently don't have much time, qa-refactor is experiencing 3 test failures related to synchronization issues with Reggie on Windows 2008 server with JDK7.  I don't have the required hardware or software to debug this properly and have to rely on print statements.

There are some Javaspace test failures on ARM, however hudsons arm servers aren't available for testing at present.

After my last commit some tests are failing due to a missing Permission.

The last issue is easily fixed, the former two are impossibly difficult.

Regards,

Peter.
