Rich:

There looks to be a lot of potential in the Collections classes, but
I'd wait until JDK 1.2 officially ships (and maybe a couple patches
after that) before moving client code to it, myself.  Javasoft doesn't
have as good a record as the jgl folks when it comes to solid and
*fast* datastructures.

There will still be cases, I'm sure, when neither a collection or a
jgl class will be fully optimized for a given task and you end up
rolling your own.  I bet most will use what's "in the language"
because it's free and convenient, though.
