Define closures in the sense of Mr. Bloch. They should be simplification of the syntax of anonymous inner classes. Instead of discussing whether to add enormous complexity to the language we should discuss how to clean up this calamitous generics with wildcards definition that drives away developers from Java. Java is an all-round language for the rest of us and has been an extremely handy straightforward tool. For everything else Sun should give first class support for Groovy and Scala in Netbeans and documentation. Then everyone has what he wants.
