The Project Coin mailing list is not an alternate forum to submit
requests for enhancements of the Java specification. Rather, it is a
venue for the analysis and refinement of thought-through proposals to
change the language.
If one is not willing or able to work through implications of the
proposal, it it not appropriate to be sent to the list.

Generally the discussion of proposals sent to Project Coin should occur
on the Project Coin list. Besides making the current status of
proposals easier to track, various parties have expressed interest in
why previous language design decisions were made and having all the
traffic on Project Coin makes that retrospective analysis possible.
