J2SE
How to create a kind of volatile final field i.e. a static field that will be considered as a constant by the VM but that can be updated as well using JSR 292 API.
Performance
invokedynamic is getting faster, a lot of faster.
Since beta 72 of jdk7, Escape Analysis is enable by default in the VM.
Expect performance improvement for your program...
Programming
Hooray, JVM has tailcall !
This post shows how to use it.
Closure introduction in Java will require a mechanism like the one introduced in C# 3.0
named extension methods. This post explain why extension methods are evil and

This blog entry shows using a newly language named pseudo that enable gradual typing,
the effect of a typing and the overhead of dynamic calls on a Fibonacci's function performance
using the infrastructure provided by JSR 292.
