What would you name Java SE 8? Posted by: Joseph Ottinger on July 04, 2005 DIGG In "Tiger for 5, Mustang for 6, Dolphin for 7. What for 8?," Kirill Grouchnikov asks what suggestions you'd have for Java SE 8. There's already a name in mind at Sun, but what would you suggest? Personally, I'm hoping for "Addax," but that's just me. What criteria would you use to decide on a name? Lastly, what features do you think Java SE 8 might have, or what will it look like?

Java SE 8 "The Grouchie!!" Posted by: Wasim AL Ayoubi on July 04, 2005 in response to Message #176599 I think octopus will be good, I recommend this very much, octopus has 8 legs. Octopus symbolizes Failover ability, Extensibility, Power, Maneuverability and much more.

How about Monkey or Goat? Posted by: Gregory Gerard on July 04, 2005 in response to Message #176587 Intelligent yet with a charming tendency to fling their own dung. Much like humans in this respect. Hey, how about a tastier animal in there. Give me something to really salivate over like goat! Nothing like an early morning goat burrito -- better than any coffee. Also, could be a sacrificial release kinda like Mustang seems to be from the specs. You know, to buy some time for the next releases feature set. Or just start going through the chinese Zodiac and adopt whatever animal owns the year planned for shipment. If it slips over into the next year, you can always hyphenate upon shipment to the next appropriate animal.

Platypus Posted by: Marcus Brito on July 04, 2005 in response to Message #176587 I know, the platypus isn't exactly a mammal, but it isn't exactly anything else. Come on, female platyus give milk to their offspring, this has to be good enough. ... and by the time Java 8 is released, I'm sure it will include as many different features as a platypus.

Chicken Posted by: Karl Puf on July 04, 2005 in response to Message #176587 Think about it, the chicken is ubiquitous, everbody has benefitted from it as some time or another (I´m talking wings, eggs etc.) and, best of all, it´s native to the island of Java!

What would you name Java SE 8? Posted by: Jens Voss on July 05, 2005 in response to Message #176587 Apparently hardly anyone posting here (as well as on Kirill's blog) is aware of the fact that Sun uses mammal names as code names for major Java SE releases (and I doubt that they intend to change that). This would reduce the set of candidates mentioned here to less than two handful (of which mammoth would be my personal favorite, too - even though I doubt Sun would want to name their product after something extinct for ages).

Nice when it was small... but now it does not fit even in the pool, plus it scares people to deploy it. Once it makes it in RT.jar... it never gets marked for deprecation. Unless they mark entire thing as deprecated and just start with Groovy+SWT, or maybe GTK#. Then they can call it Phoniex. (it was once dead) Light and fast to get things done is what I think I need in future. .V

In "Tiger for 5, Mustang for 6, Dolphin for 7. What for 8?," Kirill Grouchnikov asks what suggestions you'd have for Java SE 8. There's already a name in mind at Sun, but what would you suggest?Personally, I'm hoping for "Addax," but that's just me. What criteria would you use to decide on a name? Lastly, what features do you think Java SE 8 might have, or what will it look like?

Who cares about the names? What about the features. Posted by: Werner Schulz on July 08, 2005 in response to Message #176587 I don't care about the name. I want features, updates to the language specs. E.g., -a proper implementation of generics w/o type erasure, which in IMHO was a big mistake, -proper design-by-contract, not the feeble assert. DBC should provide inheritable class/method signatures (see B.Meyer's book), -etc, etc.
