Java 8 will be a revolution in Java much, much bigger than Java 5. It
will either make Java a renewed and refreshed language, a joy to use, or
it will be the end of the road. Javas 9, 10, 11, and 12 are planned but
may be irrelevant.

In the mean time Groovy already has everything that Java is seeking to
include.
