java.util.Optional implementation by Brian Goetz from JDK8 http://hg.openjdk.java.net/lambda/lambda/jdk/file/a90c7b9f507b/src/share/classes/java/util/Optional.java … + other goodies http://hg.openjdk.java.net/lambda/lambda/jdk/file/a90c7b9f507b/src/share/classes/java/util/ …

@steshaw it has no flatMap!

@jedws maybe they're not finished

@steshaw @jedws Not only are we not finished, but we're barely started! Likely it ends up looking a lot like Guava's.

@BrianGoetz @steshaw hopefully with flatMap though! see this blog for detail http://benhutchison.wordpress.com/2012/06/05/a-rant-on-jdroids-and-wilful-ignorance/ … see this impl https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/fugue/src/master/src/main/java/com/atlassian/fugue/Option.java …
