Yes, Java language RFEs would be spam on sumatra-dev.

We have plenty to do adjusting JVM architecture for GPUs, without touching the "third rail" of Java language design.  It's amazing how much you can get done in unmodified Java.  And even more amazing with lambdas in Java 8.

Since the JVM is a multi-language VM, there are much easier options for experimenting with language design than modifying Java.  For example, I would be delighted to see a project for adjusting Clojure libraries to execute on GPUs.

Best wishes,
