Exception transparency

[Nathan Bryant]

That first post was a little rantish, I apologize if it came across as
if that was my meaning. It wasn't the intent.

As to the statement that I'm "pointing at Scala" with this post: Well,
Scala hasn't finished parallelizing their collections framework yet. It
would be just as easy to say that I'm pointing at .NET etc. If these
ideas worked well there, why not?

Rather than just pointing at Scala (and by implication, suggesting that
our 
effort here is futile (which you basically stated explicitly in your
first 
post here ("One starts to wonder, why not just move to Scala"))), how
about 
offering some concrete advice about how these ideas might be adapted to
Java?
