First draft of translation document

[Howard Lovatt]

If you look at the class D example in:

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/lambda-dev/2010-May/001364.html

It shows multiple captures using a frame object that also contains the lambda.

As an aside the main difference in the alternate translation is that
it only contains one object, the frame object, that does both the
variable capture and is itself the lambda. The other translation has
two objects, one to capture the frame and one for the lambda.
