If this features arrive with JDK7, Java will be updated for the next 10 years of development. Some people in the blog are not agree with this features and they think Java is getting complex as C++. I dont think so, It is just syntatic sugar, thats all even the easy scripting languages this days have all this features as lambdas and closures for example Python, PHP, Ruby, Clojure, Groovy, Perl, IO and more.
Java need this for to stay relevant for the next wave of development. As a Java developer I hope Java gets this boost of features because I care for Java to keep healthy and not become the next cobol cause that only big corporation burocratic fat lazy asses use cobol.
