Announcements for java.net projects in RSS feeds

In today's Weblogs, Eduardo Pelegri-Llopart writes about RSS and us. He writes that it is generally difficult to keep tabs on all of the activity within one or more communities. He points to the availability of RSS feeds that you can use to keep tabs on your favorite projects or on a group of projects. If you are involved in a java.net project - make sure you fill those buckets by providing announcements of news that you would like others to pick up.

There have been a lot of great suggestions in the Mustang Forum. In today's Forums, tim12s suggests that the relevant RFEs be collected. "Please post links to any RFEs that you have submitted to SUN (as a result of this forum) here. If you are aware of any RFEs that are related to the topics listed in the 'Best Threads - Summary' thread (http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=143) please post them here. We need to submit the best ideas that are not already SUN RFEs to SUN."

EEvictor writes about Generics that he thinks "that Java code will lose one of it's major merits if people use generics all over the place. My understanding of 'Collection' is a group of something.
