Scott,

No pressure on the Swing Binding JSR though:) Take your time, but in return we want some nice property support. Speaking of that, I think even if the property keyword ends being rejected, we should still be able to get what we aiming at with judicious use of annotations, and the PropertyDescriptor from the bean spec. What do you think?

YOW! You're asking for a lot aren't you... The first version should be
outside of core. When everyone decided upon what nice property support
means, beans binding will be updated accordingly.

That's a tricky one. We'll have to see what happens.

The whole property issue is becoming more irritating than productive... I still get the feeling that most of the discussion is about solving a problem that most people aren't having.

Anyway.. I too have been quite curious about what's going on with the Binding JSR and how it fits with the work that Hans' group is doing.

I have a feeling that these two JSRs will be a huge leap for improving desktop Java application development. Specially when we start to see supporting wizards in NetBeans and other IDEs.

Looks like actions in JSR 296 won't be easily refactorable from a source code perspective, since things are based on strings and reflection. I don't think it's a non issue.
