==== Commons Collections ====

[http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/collections Collections] aims to provide:
 * New implementations of the JDK Collection, Set, List and Map interfaces
 * Additional related collection interfaces and implementations
 * Abstract base classes to simplify the writing of new implementations
 * A testing framework, as a published jar, that excercises the API fully

The Javadoc of the latest version is [http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/collections/apidocs-COLLECTIONS_3_0/index.html available].

==== Releases & Compatability ====

The latest release (v3.0) can be downloaded [http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/collections/index.html#Releases here].

Two releases of Collections are currently in common use - v2.1 and v3.0. These releases are source compatible (with deprecations). Unfortunately, due to human error, these releases are binary incompatible in the `IteratorUtils` class. If you don't use this class, then the two versions are binary compatible.

==== Feedback ====

Release v3.1 is currently under active development. You can give feedback on what you would ilke included by contacting the commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org mailing list, prefixing you email by [collections]. Alternatively add a comment here:
